Is there any evidence that μορφῇ θεοῦ (morphe theou) in Philippians 2:6 means the "nature" of God the Father?
ὃς ἐν μορφῇ θεοῦ ὑπάρχων οὐχ ἁρπαγμὸν ἡγήσατο τὸ εἶναι ἴσα θεῷ, — SBLGNT
Several translations including the NIV render it as "nature":
Who, being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own advantage; — NIV
While many others (e.g. ESV, NASB, HCSB, ISV, NET, etc.) render it as "form":
who, existing in the form of God, did not consider equality with God as something to be used for His own advantage. — HCSB
Is there a NT evidence in the NT and/or contemporary first century evidenceliterature that morphe is used as having the meaning of "nature"nature"?"
