Whose end is destruction, whose God is their belly, and whose glory is in their shame, who mind earthly things.)
All Commentaries on Philippians 3:19 Go To Philippians 3
John Chrysostom
AD 407
Those who “glory in their shame” some think is a reference to circumcision. I disagree. To “glory in their shame” means to take pride in what they ought to conceal. For it is bad enough to do shameful things. But if the doer is ashamed, it is only half so terrible. When, however, someone preens himself on his own shame, that is the extreme of shamelessness. .
