<< Philippians 3:1

Philippians 3:3 >>

Philippians 3:2 Beware of dogs. Those snarling and snapping like dogs. The Judaizing teachers, who so troubled the early churches, are meant. See Galatians 1:6-9. Beware of evil workers. So called because by their false teaching about the necessity of circumcision they wrought evil. Beware of the concision. Applied to those who called themselves the circumcision. It means simply a "cutting", the class who were mutilated. It is contemptuous.
