Philippians 4:18
_ _ But — Though “the gift” is not what I chiefly “seek after” (Philippians 4:17), yet I am grateful for the gift, and hereby acknowledge it as ample for all my needs. Translate, “I have all” that I want, “and more than enough.” Literally, as English Version, “I abound” over and above my needs.
_ _ I am full — Greek, “I am filled full.”
_ _ the odour of a sweet smell — (See on Ephesians 5:2). The figure is drawn from the sweet-smelling incense which was burnt along with the sacrifices; their gift being in faith was not so much to Paul, as to God (Matthew 25:40), before whom it “came up for a memorial” (Acts 10:4), sweet-smelling in God’s presence (Genesis 8:21; Revelation 8:3, Revelation 8:4).
_ _ sacrifice acceptable — (Hebrews 13:16). |

An odour of a sweet smell — More pleasing to God than the sweetest perfumes to men. |
