The Epistle of Paul the Apostle to the Philippians was written while Paul was a prisoner in Rome. This letter, Paul’s farewell message, is filled with gratitude and affection for his Philippian friends, the church which was perhaps dearest to him.

Philippians 2

2:19 But I trust in the Lord Jesus to send Timotheus shortly unto you, that I also may be of good comfort, when I know your state.
