1 Timothy 1:20

1:20 Among these are Hymenaeus and Alexander, whom I handed over to Satan ¹  to be taught not to blaspheme.

1 Timothy 6:1

6:1 Those who are under the yoke as slaves ²  must regard their own masters as deserving of full respect. This will prevent ³  the name of God and Christian teaching ⁴  from being discredited. ⁵ 

[1:20]  ¹ sn The expression handed over to Satan refers to an act of discipline mentioned by Paul here and in 1 Cor 5:5, with a remedial goal, not a punitive one. The Greek word translated taught in this verse is used of “discipline, training of children” to lead them to correct behavior.

[6:1]  ² tn Traditionally, “servants.” Though δοῦλος (doulos) is normally translated “servant,” the word does not bear the connotation of a free individual serving another. BDAG notes that “‘servant’ for ‘slave’ is largely confined to Biblical transl. and early American times…in normal usage at the present time the two words are carefully distinguished” (BDAG 260 s.v.). The most accurate translation is “bondservant” (sometimes found in the ASV for δοῦλος), in that it often indicates one who sells himself into slavery to another. But as this is archaic, few today understand its force.

[6:1]  ³ tn Grk “that the name…may not be slandered” (a continuation of the preceding sentence).

[6:1]  ⁴ tn Grk “the teaching.”

[6:1]  ⁵ tn Or “slandered.”
