Verse 23
The verse begins "This one" in the Greek text, which draws attention to Timothy’s qualifications. Paul hoped, the Lord willing, to send Timothy to Philippi with a report of the apostle’s situation and plans as soon as he knew the result of his trial. Evidently Paul expected that a decision in his case would be forthcoming soon. Both for the love of the Philippian church and for the effectiveness of his ministry, Paul wanted his friends to know about his situation. In this he set us a good example.
