Matthew Poole and continuators on Philippians 4:11

He doth anticipate any conceit they might have, as if he had a mean soul, and his joy were solely for the fruit of their care, he had received in the supply of his want as the same word is elsewhere used, Mat. 12.44.

Because he knew better things, being instructed at an higher rate, he had practically learned to rest satisfied with his own lot, 2 Cor. 11.27.

Accounting God's allowance a sufficiency to him in any condition, 1 Tim. 6.6, 8.

How adverse soever his state was he had attained to such equanimity that he could be content with such things as he had, Heb. 13.5. and chearfully and patiently submit to God's most wise disposal of him, knowing his most righteous and tender hearted father, would never leave nor forsake him, having already given him greater things than any of these sublunary ones he could stand in need of, Rom. 8.32.
