Description: This book is the first English translation of Exposition of the Epistle to the Philippians by the celebrated French protestant minister Jean Daillé, a significant figure in seventeenth-century theology. The author of numerous volumes of sermons, critical and controversial pieces, Daillé is highly esteemed for his learning, abilities, integrity, moderation, and obliging and affable manners. Written in 1639, this seminal work was praised by leading theologians of the day. It offers an extensive exploration of the Epistle to the Philippians, examining the text in minute detail, providing an abundance of doctrinal, historical, exegetical, and critical commentary, and discussing the letter within the broader context of the New Testament. Structured as a series of sermons, the book is marked by Daillé's clear interpretation of Scripture, bold yet scholarly attacks on the errors of the papacy, and ardent love for a precious Saviour. Renaissance humanism, the Reformation, and post-Reformation debates shaped Daillé's approach, providing a lens through which to understand the historical context of this sacred text. Daillé's work is notable for its depth of scholarship, providing rich insights into the themes of faith, hope, and love that are central to the Christian life, themes which are still relevant to readers today.
