This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
2 Unto Timothy, my own son in the faith: Grace, mercy, and peace, from God our Father and Jesus Christ our Lord.
Ver. 2. Mine own son] This the apostle speaketh áðï ðïëëçò öéëïóôïñãéáò , "out of deep affection," as Chrysostom observeth.
Grace, mercy, and peace] Not only grace and peace, as to others. When we pray for ministers, we must be more than ordinarily earnest for them with God. These three are joined together only in the Epistles of Timothy and Titus; as Theophylact out of Chrysostom hath observed.
