At Philippi Paul tarried to keep the passover. Only Luke remained with him, the other members of the company passing on to Troas to await him there. The Philippians were the most loving and true-hearted of the apostle’s converts, and he enjoyed a peaceful and happy visit with them during the eight days of the feast.{LP 196.2}

Paulus blev i Filippi for at holde påske. Kun Lukas blev hos ham, andre medlemmer af gruppen tog til Troas for at afvente ham der. Filipperne var de mest elskede og helhjertede af apostlens nyomvendt, og han nød et fredfuldt og lykkeligt besøg hos dem under festens otte dage.
