From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Philippians, Epistle to       was written by Paul during the two years when he was "in bonds"       in Rome (Phil. 1:7-13), probably early in the year A.D. 62 or in       the end of 61.                The Philippians had sent Epaphroditus, their messenger, with       contributions to meet the necessities of the apostle; and on his       return Paul sent back with him this letter. With this precious       communication Epaphroditus sets out on his homeward journey.       "The joy caused by his return, and the effect of this wonderful       letter when first read in the church of Philippi, are hidden       from us. And we may almost say that with this letter the church       itself passes from our view. To-day, in silent meadows, quiet       cattle browse among the ruins which mark the site of what was       once the flourishing Roman colony of Philippi, the home of the       most attractive church of the apostolic age. But the name and       fame and spiritual influence of that church will never pass. To       myriads of men and women in every age and nation the letter       written in a dungeon at Rome, and carried along the Egnatian Way       by an obscure Christian messenger, has been a light divine and a       cheerful guide along the most rugged paths of life" (Professor       Beet).                The church at Philippi was the first-fruits of European       Christianity. Their attachment to the apostle was very fervent,       and so also was his affection for them. They alone of all the       churches helped him by their contributions, which he gratefully       acknowledges (Acts 20:33-35; 2 Cor. 11:7-12; 2 Thess. 3:8). The       pecuniary liberality of the Philippians comes out very       conspicuously (Phil. 4:15). "This was a characteristic of the       Macedonian missions, as 2 Cor. 8 and 9 amply and beautifully       prove. It is remarkable that the Macedonian converts were, as a       class, very poor (2 Cor. 8:2); and the parallel facts, their       poverty and their open-handed support of the great missionary       and his work, are deeply harmonious. At the present day the       missionary liberality of poor Christians is, in proportion,       really greater than that of the rich" (Moule's Philippians,       Introd.).                The contents of this epistle give an interesting insight into       the condition of the church at Rome at the time it was written.       Paul's imprisonment, we are informed, was no hindrance to his       preaching the gospel, but rather "turned out to the furtherance       of the gospel." The gospel spread very extensively among the       Roman soldiers, with whom he was in constant contact, and the       Christians grew into a "vast multitude." It is plain that       Christianity was at this time making rapid advancement in Rome.                The doctrinal statements of this epistle bear a close relation       to those of the Epistle to the Romans. Compare also Phil. 3:20       with Eph. 2:12, 19, where the church is presented under the idea       of a city or commonwealth for the first time in Paul's writings.       The personal glory of Christ is also set forth in almost       parallel forms of expression in Phil. 2:5-11, compared with Eph.       1:17-23; 2:8; and Col. 1:15-20. "This exposition of the grace       and wonder of His personal majesty, personal self-abasement, and       personal exaltation after it," found in these epistles, "is, in       a great measure, a new development in the revelations given       through St. Paul" (Moule). Other minuter analogies in forms of       expression and of thought are also found in these epistles of       the Captivity.

Drought and    power supply problems hampered production, while inadequate revenues    prevented government pump priming. Worker remittances helped to    supplement GDP. A marked increase in capital goods imports,    particularly power generating equipment, telecommunications equipment,    and electronic data processors, contributed to 20% annual import    growth in 1992-94. Provided the government can cope with the    substantial trade deficit and meet the fiscal targets agreed to with    the IMF, the Philippines should duplicate the strong growth    performance of 1994 in 1995-96.       National product: GDP - purchasing power parity - $161.4 billion (1994    est.)       National product real growth rate: 4.3% (1994 est.)       National product per capita: $2,310 (1994 est.)       Inflation rate (consumer prices): 7.1% (1994 est.)       Unemployment rate: 9% (1994)       Budget:    revenues: $14 billion    expenditures: $15.4 billion, including capital expenditures of $NA    (FY94/95 est.)       Exports: $13.4 billion (f.o.b., 1994)    commodities: electronics, textiles, coconut products, copper, fish    partners: US 39%, Japan 16%, Germany 5%, Hong Kong 5%, UK 4% (1993)       Imports: $21.3 billion (f.o.b., 1994)    commodities: raw materials 40%, capital goods 25%, petroleum products    10%    partners: Japan 23%, US 20%, Taiwan 6%, Singapore 5%, South Korea 5%    (1993)       External debt: $40 billion (1994 est.)       Industrial production: growth rate 1.4% (1993); accounts for 28% of    GDP       Electricity:    capacity: 6,770,000 kW    production: 20.4 billion kWh    consumption per capita: 278 kWh (1993)       Industries: textiles, pharmaceuticals, chemicals, wood products, food    processing, electronics assembly, petroleum refining, fishing       Agriculture: accounts for 22% of GDP and about 45% of labor force;    major crops - rice, coconuts, corn, sugarcane, bananas, pineapples,    mangos; animal products - pork, eggs, beef; net exporter of farm    products; fish catch of 2 million metric tons annually       Illicit drugs: illicit producer of cannabis for the international drug    trade; growers are producing more and better quality cannabis despite    government eradication efforts; transit point for Southwest Asian    heroin bound for the US       Economic aid:    recipient: US commitments, including Ex-Im (FY70-89), $3.6 billion;    Western (non-US) countries, ODA and OOF bilateral commitments    (1970-88), $7.9 billion; OPEC bilateral aid (1979-89), $5 million;    Communist countries (1975-89), $123 million       Currency: 1 Philippine peso (P) = 100 centavos       Exchange rates: Philippine pesos (P) per US$1 - 24.622 (January 1995),    26.417 (1994), 22.120 (1993), 25.512 (1992), 27.479 (1991), 24.311    (1990)       Fiscal year: calendar year       Philippines:Transportation       Railroads:    total: 800 km (est.); note - including about 390 km in Luzon    narrow gauge: 800 km 1.067-m gauge       Highways:    total: 160,700 km    paved: 29,000 km    unpaved: 131,700 km       Inland waterways: 3,219 km; limited to shallow-draft (less than 1.5 m)    vessels       Pipelines: petroleum products 357 km       Ports: Batangas, Cagayan de Oro, Cebu, Davao, Guimaras, Iligan,    Iloilo, Jolo, Legaspi, Manila, Masao, Puerto Princesa, San Fernando,    Subic Bay, Zamboanga       Merchant marine:    total: 552 ships (1,000 GRT or over) totaling 8,748,083 GRT/14,373,730    DWT    ships by type: bulk 237, cargo 134, chemical tanker 4, combination    bulk 10, combination ore/oil 1, container 10, liquefied gas tanker 6,    livestock carrier 9, oil tanker 46, passenger 1, passenger-cargo 11,    refrigerated cargo 24, roll-on/roll-off cargo 13, short-sea passenger    17, vehicle carrier 29    note: a flag of convenience registry; Japan owns 13 ships, Norway 2,    Switzerland 1, Taiwan 1, and South Korea 1       Airports:    total: 269    with paved runways over 3,047 m: 2    with paved runways 2,438 to 3,047 m: 7    with paved runways 1,524 to 2,437 m: 24    with paved runways 914 to 1,523 m: 32    with paved runways under 914 m: 133    with unpaved runways 1,524 to 2,438 m: 4    with unpaved runways 914 to 1,523 m: 67       Philippines:Communications       Telephone system: 872,900 telephones; good international radio and    submarine cable services; domestic and interisland service adequate    local: NA    intercity: 11 domestic satellite links    international: submarine cables extended to Hong Kong, Guam,    Singapore, Taiwan, and Japan; 3 INTELSAT (1 Indian Ocean and 2 Pacific    Ocean) earth stations       Radio:    broadcast stations: AM 267 (including 6 US), FM 55, shortwave 0    radios: NA       Television:    broadcast stations: 33 (including 4 US)    televisions: NA       Philippines:Defense Forces       Branches: Army, Navy (includes Coast Guard and Marine Corps), Air    Force       Manpower availability: males age 15-49 18,238,568; males fit for    military service 12,876,771; males reach military age (20) annually    752,622 (1995 est.)       Defense expenditures: exchange rate conversion - $731 million, 1.4% of    GNP (1992)
