- 4:10
  
  the Lord: In this context, the title “Lord” (without the definite article in Greek) could refer either to Jehovah God or to Jesus Christ. A number of Bible translations of the Christian Greek Scriptures into Hebrew and English use the divine name here, which may favor the idea that “Lord” refers to Jehovah in this context.—See study note on Php 4:4.
