Tit_1:4. Τίτῳ γνησίῳ τέκνῳ κατὰ κοινὴν πίστιν ] On γνησίῳ τέκνῳ , see 1Ti_1:2. Κατὰ κοινὴν πίστιν gives the point of view from which Titus can be considered the genuine son of the apostle. Beza: i.e. fidei respectu quae quidem et Paulo patri et Tito filio communis erat. There is nothing to indicate that in using κοινήν Paul was thinking of an original difference between them, he being a Jewish Christian, Titus a Gentile Christian.

χάρις [ ἔλεος ], εἰρήνη κ . τ . λ .] see on 1Ti_1:2.

The designation appended to Χριστοῦ , viz. τοῦ σωτῆρος ἡμῶν , is peculiar to this epistle.
