Walk Whatever Whereto WhereuntoPhilippians 3 1. He warns them to beware of the false teachers;4. showing that himself has greater cause than they to trust in the righteousness of the law; 7. which he counts as loss, to gain Christ and his righteousness; 12. acknowledging his own imperfection and pressing on toward the goal; 15. He exhorts them to be thus minded; 17. and to imitate him, 18. and to decline carnal ways. (16) Let us walk . . .--In this verse the last words appear to be an explanatory gloss. The original runs thus: Nevertheless--as to that to which we did attain--let us walk by the same. The word "walk" is always used of pursuing a course deliberately chosen. (See Acts 21:24; Romans 4:12; Galatians 5:25.) The nearest parallel (from which the gloss is partly taken) is Galatians 6:16, "As many as walk by this rule, peace be upon them." In this passage there seems to be the same double reference which has pervaded all St. Paul's practical teaching. He is anxious for two things--that they should keep on in one course, and that all should keep on together. In both senses he addresses the "perfect;" he will have them understand that they have attained only one thing--to be in the right path, and that it is for them to continue in it; he also bids them refrain from setting themselves up above "the imperfect;" for the very fact of division would mark them as still "carnal," mere "babes in Christ" (1Corinthians 3:1-4).Verse 16. - Nevertheless, whereto we have already attained, let us walk by the same rule, let us mind the same thing. Omit, with the best manuscripts, the words from "rule" to "thing," and translate, R.V., only, whereunto we have already attained, by that same (rule) let us walk; or, more literally, only, what we arrived at, by that same walk. Let there be no falling back; let us, at each point in our Christian course, maintain and walk according to that degree of grace at which we arrived. This explanation seems more probable than the other view, which understands the words, "by the same," of the rule of faith as opposed to the works of the Law. Parallel Commentaries ...
