Philippians 3:19 - Exposition

Whose end is destruction ; rather, as R.V., perdition. Observe the contrast: not the prize of the high calling, but everlasting death . Whose god is their belly, and whose glory is in their shame (comp. Romans 16:18 ). They boast of their liberty, and pervert it into licence' ( 2 Peter 2:19 ). Who mind earthly things ; rather, they who mind. The irregularity of the construction (he returns to the nominative) seems expressive of the apostle's indignation.
