Philippians 1:18

Context
1:18 What is the result? Only that in every way, whether in pretense or in truth, Christ is being proclaimed, and in this I rejoice.

Yes, 1  and I will continue to rejoice,

Philippians 4:12

Context
4:12 I have experienced times of need and times of abundance. In any and every circumstance I have learned the secret of contentment, 2  whether I go satisfied or hungry, have plenty or nothing.

1 tn Or “But.” The conjunction ἀλλά (alla) may be emphatic or contrastive. If the former, the idea may be that Paul will continue rejoicing because of the proclamation of the gospel or because of his imminent release from prison (v. 19); if the latter, Paul is now turning his attention solely to this second reason to rejoice, viz., that he will soon be released from prison. In this latter view the clause should be translated, “But I will also rejoice since I know…”

2 tn The words “of contentment” are not in the Greek text, but are implied by Paul’s remarks at the end of v. 11.
