1 Timothy 3:1

Qualifications for Overseers and Deacons

3:1 This saying ³  is trustworthy: “If someone aspires to the office of overseer, ⁴  he desires a good work.”

1 Timothy 3:10

1 Timothy 5:11

5:11 But do not accept younger widows on the list, ⁵  because their passions may lead them away from Christ ⁶  and they will desire to marry,

1 Timothy 6:19

6:19 In this way they will save up ⁷  a treasure for themselves as a firm foundation ⁸  for the future and so lay hold of ⁹  what is truly life.

[2:14]  ¹ tn This phrase uses a compound form of the same verb as in v. 14a: “deceived” vs. “deceived out, completely deceived.” The two verbs could be synonymous, but because of the close contrast in this context, it seems that a stronger meaning is intended for the second verb.

[2:14]  ² tn Grk “has come to be in transgression” (with an emphasis on the continuing consequences of that fall).

[3:1]  ³ tn Grk “the saying,” referring to the following citation (see 1 Tim 1:15; 4:9; 2 Tim 2:11; Titus 3:8 for other occurrences of this phrase).

[3:1]  ⁴ tn Grk “aspires to oversight.”

[5:11]  ⁵ tn Grk “refuse younger widows.”

[5:11]  ⁶ tn With a single verb and object, this clause means “pursue sensuous desires in opposition to Christ.”

[6:19]  ⁷ tn Grk “saving up” (the continuation of 6:18). Because of the length and complexity of the Greek sentence, a new sentence was started at the beginning of v. 19.

[6:19]  ⁸ tn Grk “treasuring up a good foundation.”

[6:19]  ⁹ tn Grk “that they may lay hold of.”
