Philippians 3:15

15. As many as be perfect Including himself in the class thus designated, and leaving each member of the Philippian Church to decide whether or not he himself belonged to it. See note on Philippians 3:12. The perfection here is a moral perfection, and, therefore, a different thing from that in Philippians 3:12, which the apostle declares himself not to have attained. The perfect are the true circumcision, as defined in Philippians 3:3, and stand in contrast with those who depend upon the flesh, and thereby fail of an acceptable righteousness.
