Tit 1:8. Ἐγκρατῆ, temperate) Ἐγκρατῆς and ἀκρατὴς are sometimes taken in a wider sense; comp. Mat 23:25 (ἀκρασίας, excess), note. The opposite, ἀκραστὴς, is clear, so that it was not necessary to express it; and ἀκρασία, so far as it is opposed to τῇ παροινίᾳ, would not come so much under the eye of Titus.
