The Key Word — Ἐχάρην, chairōgenerated
The verb χαίρω means to rejoice or be glad. It is a common expression of joy found throughout the New Testament, including in contexts of greeting and celebration. Here, Paul uses it to convey his happiness in the Lord regarding the Philippians' renewed concern.
The second aorist passive deponent form indicates a completed action in the past that affects the present. Paul rejoices not just in the act of their concern but in the relationship it signifies.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
This study reads the verse in the Berean Standard Bible, so the BSB is the wording every comparison below is made against. The BSB has rejoice greatly, which is echoed in the KJV and ASV, both of which also express Paul's joy in the Lord.
Where the translations differ is primarily in the rendering of ἀνεθάλετε — revived (BSB) versus flourished again (KJV, YLT). The variations reflect different nuances in conveying the sense of renewal in concern.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The main finite verb is Ἐχάρην, I rejoiced, which governs the entire sentence. It is followed by an adverbial phrase μεγάλως (greatly) that modifies the verb, and a subordinate clause that explains the reason for the rejoicing.
The structure includes several clauses, with the first clause expressing Paul's joy, followed by a clause detailing the Philippians' action of reviving their concern, and concluding with a clause that notes their previous lack of opportunity to show it.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
In Philippians 4:10, the word Ἐχάρην (chairō), meaning 'I rejoiced,' corresponds to the Hebrew word שָׂמַח (śāmaḥ), which also conveys the idea of rejoicing or being glad. This connection emphasizes the emotional state of joy that Paul expresses in his letter.
The term ἤδη (ēdē), translated as 'now,' aligns with the Hebrew עַתָּ֫ה (ʿattāh), indicating a present moment in time. This choice highlights the immediacy of Paul's joy regarding the Philippians' renewed concern for him.
In plain words — the whole versegenerated
Philippians 4:10 shows Paul expressing joy in the Lord because the Philippians have renewed their care for him. He acknowledges that they had been concerned before but had not had the chance to demonstrate it. This highlights the importance of mutual support in the Christian community.
Frequently Asked Questionsgenerated

The early church on this verse — how the Fathers read it
John Chrysostom comments on this verse, emphasizing the spiritual benefits of almsgiving and how it reflects the heart of the giver.
I Have ofttimes said, that almsgiving hath been introduced not for the sake of the receivers, but of the givers, for the latter are they which make the greatest gain. And this Paul shows here also.
John Chrysostom highlights that almsgiving is not merely for the benefit of the receivers but enriches the givers, demonstrating this principle through Paul's words.

χαίρω is a Greek verb meaning to rejoice or be glad. It is used in various contexts, including greetings and farewells, as well as expressing joy in response to good news. The New Testament features it in verses like Matthew 2:10 and Philippians 4:10. It can also appear in forms of salutation, such as χαῖρε (hail) and χαίρετε (greetings).

δέ (de) is a post-positive particle in Greek, primarily used as a conjunction to connect clauses. It can express contrast (but, on the other hand) or continuation (and, also), and is often used to transition between ideas or to add emphasis. In the New Testament, it appears frequently in various contexts, such as contrasting statements or resuming interrupted discourse, with notable examples in Matthew and 2 Corinthians.

κύριος is a Greek word meaning 'lord' or 'master,' derived from the concept of authority. It is used in various contexts, referring to God, Jesus, and earthly masters. In the New Testament, it often denotes divine authority, as seen in verses like Matthew 12:8. The term can also express respect when addressing others, such as teachers or magistrates.
A MAN, according to the later Greek grammarians, was δεσπότης in respect of his slaves (Plato, Legg. vi. 756 e), therefore οἰκοδεσπότης, but κύριος in regard of his wife and children ; who in speaking either to him or of him, would give him this title of honour; “as Sara obeyed Abraham, calling him lord” (κύριον αὐτὸν καλοῦσα, I Pet. ili. 6: ef. Plutarch, De Virt. Mul. 5. vv. Μίκκα καὶ Meyoro). There is a certain truth in this distinction. Undoubtedly there lies in κύριος the sense of an authority owning limitations—moral limitations it may be; it is implied too that the wielder of this authority will not exclude, in wielding it, a consideration of their good over whom it is exercised; while the δεσπότης exercises a more unrestricted power and absolute domination, confessing no such limitations or restraints. He who addresses another as δέσποτα, puts an emphasis of submission into his…

Lord
There are various Hebrew and Greek words so rendered.
(1.) Heb. Jehovah, has been rendered in the English Bible LORD, printed in small capitals. This is the proper name of the God of the Hebrews. The form “Jehovah” is retained only in Ex. 6:3; Ps. 83:18; Isa. 12:2; 26:4, both in the Authorized and the Revised Version.
(2.) Heb. ‘adon, means one possessed of absolute control. It denotes a master, as of slaves (Gen. 24:14, 27), or a ruler of his subjects (45:8), or a husband, as lord of his wife (18:12).
The old plural form of this Hebrew word is ’adonai. From a superstitious reverence for the name “Jehovah,” the Jews, in reading their Scriptures, whenever that name…
[GOD]
This name belongs to God by preeminence; and in this sense ought never to be given to any creature. Jesus Christ, as the Messiah, the Son of God, and equal with the Father, is often called Lord in Scripture, especially in the writing of Paul. The word LORD, in the English Bible, when printed in small capitals, stands always for JEHOVAH in the Hebrew. See JEHOVAH.

μεγάλως is an adverb meaning 'greatly' or 'much,' derived from the adjective μέγας. It appears in various contexts, including Philippians 4:10, where it conveys a sense of intensity or significance.

The Greek word ὅτι (hoti) is a conjunction primarily meaning 'that' or 'because.' It introduces objective clauses, often following verbs of perception or declaration, and can also serve as a causal particle. The New Testament frequently employs it in this way, such as in Matthew 5:4-12. There is some variation in how lexicons describe its usage, particularly regarding its pleonastic function in direct discourse.
ὅτι [properly neut. of ὅστις], a conjunction [fr. Hom. down], (Lat. quod [ef.

The Greek word ἤδη (i.e., *ēdē*) is an adverb meaning 'now' or 'already.' It is used in the New Testament to indicate a present time or state, as seen in verses like Matthew 3:10 and Romans 1:10. The word can also imply immediacy or logical proximity, with variations such as 'νῦν... ἤδη' (now already) and 'ἤδη ποτέ' (now at length).
ἤδη, adv., [fr. Hom. down; on deriv. see Vanitek p. 745; Peile p. 395], in the N. T. everywh. of time, now, already, (Lat. jam): Mt. iii. 10; v. 28; xiv.15; Mk. iv. 37; ΧΙ. 11; Lk. vii. 6; xii. 49; [xxiv. 29 T WH Trtxt., L Tr mrg. br.]; Jn. iv. 35 (36), 51; xix. 28 (that all things were now finished and that nothing further remained for him to do or to suffer); Acts xxvii. 9; Ro. xiii. 11 (that it is already time to wake up and indulge no longer in sleep); 1 Co. iv. 8, and often; νῦν... ἤδη, now already (Lat. jam nunc): 1 Jn. iv. 3; ἤδη ποτέ, now at last, at length now: with fut. Ro. i. 10; [with aor. Phil. iv. 10. Syn. see ἄρτι, fin.]
ἤδη. For the idea of ‘logical proximity and immediateness ”’ (cf. Baumlein Griech. Partikeln, p. 138 ff.) which underlies this word and is perhaps to be seen in 1 Cor 67 (cf. Ellicott ad /.), we may cite the common use of the adverb in magical incantations, e.g. P Par 574128 (iii/A.p.) (= Selectzons, p. 114) ἔξελθε, δαῖμον, .. . καὶ ἀπόστηθι ἀπὸ τοῦ S(c)i(va) ἄρτι ἄρτι ἤδη, P Lond 121978 (iii/A.p.)

ποτέ is an enclitic particle meaning 'once' or 'at some time.' It can refer to both past and future events and is often used in negative constructions or questions. The New Testament uses it in various contexts, such as John 9:13 and Luke 22:32. Some lexicons note its use in hypothetical clauses and questions, while others emphasize its indefinite temporal nature.

The Greek word ἀναθάλλω (i.e., *anathallo*) is built from the prefix ἀνα- and the root θάλλω, meaning 'to flourish.' It covers meanings related to reviving or flourishing again, as seen in Philippians 4:10. The lexicons note its use in the Septuagint and highlight some debate on its exact translation in context.
ἀνα-θάλλω
(< θάλλω, to flourish),
[in LXX: Ps 28:7 (עלז), Ez 17:24 (פּרח hi.), Ho 8:9, Wi 4:4, Si 5:1-15*;]
to revive: Phl 4:10 (of MM, VGT, s.v.).†
ἀνα-θάλλω: 2 aor. avéCadov; (Ps. xxvii. (xxviii.) 7; Sap. iv. 4; very rare in Grk. writ. and only in the poets, ef. Bttm. Ausf. Spr. ii. p. 195; [Veitch s. v. θάλλω ; W. 87 (83); B. 59 (52)]); to shoot up, sprout again, grow green again, flourish again, (Hom. Il. 1, 236; Ael. y. h. 5,4); trop. of those whose condition and affairs are becoming more prosperous: Phil. iv. 10 dveOadere τὸ ὑπὲρ ἐμοῦ φρονεῖν ye have revived so as to take thought for me [the inf. being the Grk. accus., or accus. of specification, W. 317 (298); cf. Ellic. ad loc.]. Others, ace. to a trans. use of the verb found only in the Sept. (Ezek. xvii. 24; Sir. i. 18, ete.), render ye have revived (allowed to revive) your thought for me [the inf. being taken as an object-ace., W. 323 (303); B. 263 (226); cf. Bp. Lghtft. ad loc.]; against whom see Meyer ad loc.
ἀναθάλλω is one of the words that Nageli cites (p. 81) to prove that in Phil 4° ἀνεθάλετε τὸ ὑπὲρ ἐμοῦ φρονεῖν, Paul has taken vocabulary from the more cultured Kow/7, through his later intercourse with Greeks. It should be noted, however, that the word is not rare in the LXX (especially in Sirach), five times in this rare tense and four times transitively. It is a curious problem whence the LXX derived it. The simplex occurs in BGU IV. r112'8 (B.C. 4) παρείληφεν δὲ καὶ ἡ Evyévera τὸ παιδίον θάλλουσαν.
ἀναθάλλω (anathallō) — to renew.

1 occurrences in the New Testament, rendered 1 different way. The commonest English word for it is not its meaning — it is one translator's decision, repeated.
The definite article — the commonest word in the Greek New Testament at 19,867 occurrences. Greek uses it more freely than English does and can drop it deliberately, so its presence and its absence both carry weight for a translator; but no single occurrence carries a message of its own. Here it simply gathers “the things” into one definite bundle.

THE, an adjective or definitive adjective.
1. This adjective is used as a definitive, that is, before nouns which are specific or understood; or it is used to limit their signification to a specific thing or things, or to describe them; as the laws of the twelve tables. the independent tribunals of justice in our country, are the security or private rights, and the best bulwark against arbitrary power. the sun is the source of light and heat.
This he calls the preaching of the cross.
2. the is also used rhetorically before a noun in the singular number, to denote a species by way of distinction; a single thing representing the whole. the fig tree putteth forth her green figs; the almond tree shall flourish; the grasshopper shall be a burden.
3. In poetry, the sometimes loses the final vowel before another vowel.
Th' adorning thee with so much art,

The Greek word ὑπέρ (transliterated as *huper*) is a preposition meaning 'over' or 'above' when used with the genitive case, and it can imply 'for' or 'on behalf of' in various contexts. It appears frequently in the New Testament, particularly in discussions of Christ's sacrificial death, such as in Matthew 5:44 and Romans 5:6-8. The word can also express excess or superiority when used with the accusative case.
Ir has been often claimed, and in the interests of an all-important truth, namely the vicarious character of the sacrifice of the death of Christ, that in such passages as Met. 4i;-93 Tit. i. 14: 1 Tim. 11. 6; Gal. 111: 13+ Luke REM 19, 203 1 Pet. 11. 21: 11.133 iv.1; Rom. v.38; John x. 15, in all of which Christ is said to have died ὑπὲρ πάντων, UTEP ἡμῶν, ὑπὲρ τῶν προβάτων, and the like, ὑπέρ shall be accepted as equipollent with ἀντί. And then, it is further urged that, as ἀντί is the preposition first of equivalence (Homer, Jl. ix. 116, 117) and then of exchange (1 Cor. xi. 15; Heb. xii. 2, 16; Matt. v. 38), ὑπέρ must in all those passages be regarded as having the same force. Each of these, it is evident, would thus become a dictum probans for a truth, in itself most vital, namely that Christ suffered, not merely on our behalf and for our good, but also in our stead, and bearing…

In the New Testament also the words are various, chiefly gar, kai gar, hoti (conjunctions); anti apo eis dia (accusative), epi (dative and accusative), peri (genitive), pros (genitive and accusative), huper (genitive) (prepositions)): the English Revised Version and the American Standard Revised Version give in many cases more literal or more accurate renderings than those in the King James Version.

The first-person pronoun. A Greek verb already carries its person in the ending, so the pronoun is usually present for emphasis. Luke puts himself inside the “us” among whom these things were fulfilled: he writes as one of the people the events happened to, not as an observer standing outside them.

The Greek word φρονέω (phroneo) is built from the root meaning 'mind' and encompasses thinking, understanding, and being disposed in a certain way. It appears in various contexts, such as having opinions, being mindful, or directing one's thoughts towards specific matters. In the New Testament, it is notably used in Romans, Philippians, and Corinthians to express concepts of mindset and intention.

The Greek word ἐπί (epi) is a preposition that indicates a relationship of superposition, often translated as 'on,' 'upon,' or 'over.' It can govern the genitive, dative, or accusative cases, covering meanings related to place, time, authority, and various figurative uses. In the New Testament, it frequently appears with the accusative case, especially in contexts of motion or direction, such as in Matthew 14:28.

ὅς is a pronoun meaning 'who,' 'which,' 'what,' or 'that.' It serves as both a demonstrative and a relative pronoun, agreeing in gender with its antecedent.

The New Testament frequently employs it to link terms and sentences, as seen in verses like Matthew 2:18 and John 10:3. Abbott-Smith notes its use in both simple and complex structures, while Thayer emphasizes its role as the most common particle in the New Testament.
καί, a conj., and; the most freq. by far of all the particles in the N. T. [On its uses see W. § 53, 3sqq.; B. 361 (310) sqq., and ef. Ellicott on Phil. iv. 12; on the difference between it and τέ see 8. v. τέ ad init. ] I. It serves as a copulative i.e. to connect (Lat. et, atque, Germ. und) ; 1. it connects single words or terms: a. univ., as of Φαρισαῖοι καὶ Σαδδουκαῖοι, Mt. xvi. 1; ὁ θεὸς καὶ πατήρ, he who is God and Father (see θεός, 3); ἐν καρδίᾳ καλῇ καὶ ἀγαθῇ, Lk. viii. 15; πολυμερῶς καὶ πολυτρόπως, ΗΘ}. 1. 1; it is repeated before single terms, to each of which its own force and weight is thus given: ἡ υἱοθεσία καὶ ἡ δόξα καὶ ai διαθῆκαι καὶ ἡ νομοθεσία καὶ ἡ λατρεία καὶ αἱ ἐπαγγελίαι, Ro. ix. 4 ; ἁγία καὶ δικαία καὶ ἀγαθή, Ro. vii. 12; add, Mt. xxiii. 23; Lk. xiv. 21; Jn. xvi. 8; Acts xv. 20, 29; xxi. 25; Heb. ix. 10; Rey. v. 12; xviii. 12 sq.; ef.

ol'-so: In the Greek kai, when it is equivalent to "also" or "even," is always placed before the word or phrase which it is intended to emphasize (e.g. Ac 12:3; 1 Joh 4:21). Mt 6:14 should therefore read, "Your heavenly Father will forgive you also"; Lu 6:13, "Whom also he named apostles"; Heb 8:6, "The mediator of a better covenant also"; and 1Th 4:14, `If we believe that Jesus died and rose again, so also (we believe that) those who are fallen asleep in Jesus, God will bring with Him.'

The Greek word φρονέω (phroneo) is built from the root meaning 'mind' and encompasses thinking, understanding, and being disposed in a certain way. It appears in various contexts, such as having opinions, being mindful, or directing one's thoughts towards specific matters. In the New Testament, it is notably used in Romans, Philippians, and Corinthians to express concepts of mindset and intention.

The Greek word ἀκαιρέομαι (*akaireomai*) means to lack opportunity or to be inopportune. It is derived from the negative prefix and a term meaning 'unseasonable.' The New Testament uses it in Philippians 4:10, contrasting it with the term for having a suitable opportunity. The entries consistently emphasize its meaning related to failing to find a proper occasion.

It can express contrast (but, on the other hand) or continuation (and, also), and is often used to transition between ideas or to add emphasis.
