Philippians 2:27-30

27For indeed he was sick to the point of death, but God had mercy on him, and not only on him but also on me, so that I would not have sorrow upon sorrow.

28Therefore I have sent him all the more eagerly, so that when you see him again you may rejoice and I may be less concerned about you.

291Receive him then in the Lord with all joy, and 2hold people like him in high regard,

30because he came close to death 34for the work of Christ, risking his life to 5compensate 6for your absence in your service to me.
