Philippians 2:5–11: The Name Above Every Name
Philippians 2:5–11 gives the name above every name to Jesus because he humbled himself to the death of the cross. His identity is a story, and God's exaltation of him ends in worship to the glory of the Father.

Philippians 2:3–8: Humility That Doesn't Grasp
