This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
2Ti 4:13. Τὸν φαιλόνην, the cloak) Some take it for a book-case; but it would not be called a case apart from the books.-ἀπέλιπον, I left) The cloak, perhaps, when they first laid violent hands on Paul, might have been taken from him at Rome, if he had brought it with him. Now when Timothy is desired to bring it, personal security is not obscurely promised to him.-παρὰ Κάρπῳ, with Carpus) The man must have been very faithful, to whom the apostle would entrust this most precious deposit.
