Definition: (Philippians) is a book of the New Testament in the Greek language, written by St Paul (162-95 CE). The book was originally known as "To Phoebe," but it was renamed after Paul's missionary journey to Italy.
The translation of Philippians into English is:
"Dear brothers and sisters, I would like to take this opportunity to express my deep affection for you. It is a beautiful thing to be able to live in a place where people from all over the world gather together each day. Even though it may seem strange, when we are in close proximity to one another, we can become so close that even if we don't talk much, we feel very close.
It's quite remarkable how many different things there are to do and see in Italy: from the beautiful landscapes of the mountains to the bustling cities. There is something for everyone - whether it's going to the beach or exploring a city centre, or just simply taking in the sights."
The word "Philippians" means "a brotherhood," as Paul describes it in the book. It also carries the connotation of being close and related to one another.
There are many different ways that people can identify themselves as Philippians:
1) They may be members of a religious community, such as a church or an organization
2) They may live near a town or city where there is a large population of Christians
3) They may have a close relationship with one another and have shared interests and activities that they enjoy together
4) They may be members of a group that meets regularly to talk about faith, Bible study, and other things related to Christian beliefs.
The word "Philippians" also carries the connotation of being in a state of joy, hope, or contentment.
