Holman New Testament Commentary - Galatians, Ephesians, Philippians, Colossians Quotes

“Humility does not mean putting ourselves down but rather lifting others up.”
― Max E. Anders, Holman New Testament Commentary - Galatians, Ephesians, Philippians, Colossians

“Christ didn't become any less God, but he chose not to use some of his divine attributes. This involved a veiling of his preincarnate glory (John 17:5) and the voluntary nonuse of some of his divine prerogatives during the time he was on earth (Matt. 24:36). For God to become a man was humbling enough, but he was willing to go even further. Christ could have come to earth in his true position as King of the universe. Instead, he took the role of a servant. The Creator chose to serve his creatures.”
