ISB ~ Philippians 2 v19

Timothy:One of Paul’s trusted companions (1:1) present with him in Rome. He hopes to send Timothy to Philippi to encourage the Church and report back on their circumstances. His proven character and genuine interest in others make him well suited for the task (2:4, 21). The Philippians already know Timothy, because he was one of the founding missionaries of their Church (Acts 16:1-40).
