1 | What does "emptied Himself" really mean | Phil 2:7 | Hank | 173765 | ||
Kalos, thanks for posting the excellent article exegeting the kenosis passage. It sheds needed light on an oft-misunderstood portion of Scripture. I'd like to point out that these verses, Philippians 2:6-11, known as the kenosis passage, are the text of one of the four great Christological passages in the New Testament. The other three are: John 1:1-18; Colossians 1:15-23 plus 2:9,10; and Hebrews 1:1-4. If our readers are fishing around for something to study today, they will find it a most enlightening and delightful experience to do a comparative study of these four magnificant passages. A few hours devoted to study and reflection on these four great passages of Scripture cannot fail to deepen one's knowledge of our Lord. And what enterprise in all the world could be better than that? --Hank | ||||||
2 | What does "emptied Himself" really mean | Phil 2:7 | koscheiman | 173770 | ||
He emptied himself - did not appear in his glory, for he assumed the form of a servant, being made in the likeness of man. And his being made in the likeness of man, and assuming the form of a servant, was a proof that he had emptied himself - laid aside the effulgence of his glory. |
