Philippians 4 8 Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable if anything is excellent or praiseworthy think about such things. Here, repeating the word Finally, the Apostle again draws to a conclusion, in a comprehensive exhortation to stand fast in all that is good on the foundation which he had laid in the name of Christ. The exhortation is marked by the reiteration of affectionate earnestness, in which, however, we may as always trace an underlying method. In each pair of epithets there seems to be reference both to an inner reality and to the outward development, by which it is at once manifested and perfected. In both St. Paul would have them grow up to perfection. True. Truth is the inherent likeness to God, who is Truth. Whatever is true in itself is also venerable i.

Pure is righteous in essence, in the thought, which cannot be thus tested showing itself in what is just and indeed perfected thereby, but in itself something holier still. Lovely. of good report. Both words are peculiar to this passage in both we pass from truth and righteousness to love. Lovely is that which deserves love. The phrase of good report represents a Greek word which is commonly used for fair sounding, or auspicious and acceptable. It is therefore the outward expression of what is lovely, winning the acceptance which loveliness deserves. If there be any virtue, and. Still there is the same antithesis virtue is the inherent quality praise is virtues due. But the word virtue, so frequent in human morality, is hardly ever used in Scripture. In fact, the only other case of application to man is in 2. Peter 1 5, where it stands between faith and knowledge, and seems specially to signify the energy of practice by which faith grows into knowledge. The reason of this is clear. To the very name of virtue clings the idea of self reliance such self reliance as the Stoic philosophy then the only dominant system of Roman opinion which had any nobleness in it made its essential characteristic and that idea is, of course, foreign to the whole conception of Christian morality. The occurrence, therefore, here of an appeal to virtue and to praise seems strange. We notice, however, that it is introduced by a new phrase of mere hypothesis if there be, c., which may be taken to mark it as an outlying consideration, occupying a less firm and important ground. Probably, therefore, it is an appeal to the lower conceptions of the society, so characteristically Roman, around them Nay, even if there be any truth in the virtue and praise of mere human morality, c. Verse 8. Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true. He repeats the finally of Philippians 2 1, He again and again prepares to close his Epistle, but cannot at once bid farewell to his beloved Philippians. He urges them to fill their thoughts with things good and holy. Christ is the Truth all that is true comes from him the false, the vain, is of the earth, earthy. Perhaps the verb may be emphatic. Sceptics may deny the existence of absolute truth men may scoffingly ask, What is truth Truth is real, and it is found in Christ, the Truth. Whatsoever things are honest. The word occurs only here and four times in the pastoral Epistles. It is a word difficult translate. Honourable or reverend the renderings of the R. V. are better equivalents than honest. It points to a Christian decorum, a Christian self respect, which is quite consistent with true humility, for it is a reverence for the temple of God. Whatsoever things are just rather, perhaps, righteous, in the widest meaning. Whatsoever things are pure not only chaste, but free from stain or defilement of any sort. The word used here is not common in the New Testament. The adverb occurs in Philippians 1 1. Whatsoever things are lovely not beautiful, but pleasing, lovable whatsoever things would attract the love of holy souls. Whatsoever things are of good report. The word means well speaking not well spoken of, and so gracious, attractive in classical Greek it means auspicious, of good omen. Of these six heads, the first two describe the subjects of devout thought as they are in themselves the second pair relate to practical life the third pair to the moral approbation which the contemplation of a holy life excites in good men. If there be any virtue. This word, so very common in the Greek moralists, occurs nowhere else in St. Paul. Nor does any other of the New Testament writers use it except St. Peter l Peter 2 9 in the Greek 2 Peter 1 3, 5. Bishop Lightfoot says, The strangeness of the word, combined with the change of expression, will suggest another explanation Whatever value may reside in your old heathen conception of virtue, whatever consideration is due to the praise of men as if the apostle were anxious not to omit any possible ground of appeal.

St. Paul bids us provide for honest things, not only in the sight of the Lord, but also in the sight of men. Nevertheless, in the highest point of view, the praise of the true Israelite is not of man, but of God. Think on these things or, as in the margin of R. V., take account of. Let these be the considerations which guide your thoughts and direct your motives. The apostle implies that we have the power of governing our thoughts, and so are responsible for them. If the thoughts are ordered well, the outward life will follow. Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true. To close all with respect to the duties of Christianity incumbent on the professors of it, the apostle exhorts to a regard to everything that is true that is agreeable to the Scriptures of truth, to the Gospel the word of truth, or to the law and light of nature and whatever was really so, even among the very Heathens, in opposition to falsehood, lying, and hypocrisy whatsoever things are honest in the sight of men or grave, or venerable in speech, in action or attire, in opposition to levity, frothiness, or foppery whatsoever things are just between man and man, or with respect both to God and men giving to God what belongs to him, and to man what is his due studying to exercise a conscience void of offence to both, in opposition to all impiety, injustice, violence, and oppression whatsoever things are pure or chaste, in words and deeds, in opposition to all filthiness and foolish talking, to obscene words and actions. The Vulgate Latin and Arabic versions render it, whatsoever things are holy which are agreeable to the holy nature, law, and will of God, and which tend to promote holiness of heart and life whatsoever are lovely which are amiable in themselves, and to be found even among mere moral men, as in the young man whom Christ as man is said to love, Mark 1.
