This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

For

All men require this mode of justification, for all men are sinners, and therefore exposed to God's wrath.

The wrath of God (ὀργὴ Θεοῦ)

Not punishment, but the personal emotion. See on Joh 3:36.

Ungodliness and unrighteousness (ἀσέβειαν καὶ ἀδικίαν).

Irreligiousness and immorality. See on godliness, 2Pe 1:3; also 2Pe 2:13.

Hold (κατεχόντων)

Not possess: compare Rom 1:21. Rev., correctly, hold down; i.e., hinder or repress. Compare 2Th 2:6, 2Th 2:7; Luk 4:42.

The truth

Divine truth generally, as apparent in all God's self-revelations.
