提摩太前書 2:8-10 RCUVTS

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - 1 Timothy 2:8

Verse 8 8I wish therefore that men may pray This inference depends on the preceding statement; for, as we saw in the Epistle to the Galatians, we must receive “the Spirit of adoption,” (37) in order that we may call on God in a proper manner. Thus, after having exhibited the grace of Christ to all, and after having mentioned that he was given to the Gentiles for the express purpose, that they might enjoy the same benefit of redemption in common with the Jews, he invites all in the same manner... read more

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - 1 Timothy 2:9

Verse 9 9In like manner also women As he enjoined men to lift up pure hands, so he now prescribes the manner in which women ought to prepare for praying aright. And there appears to be an implied contrast between those virtues which he recommends and the outward sanctification of the Jews; for he intimates that there is no profane place, nor any from which both men and women may not draw near to God, provided they are not excluded by their vices. He intended to embrace the opportunity of... read more

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - 1 Timothy 2:10

Verse 10 10Which becometh women; for undoubtedly the dress of a virtuous and godly woman must differ from that of a strumpet. What he has laid down are marks of distinction; and if piety must be testified by works, this profession ought also to be visible in chaste and becoming dress. read more

The Pulpit Commentary - 1 Timothy 2:1-15

The whole chapter is given up to directions concerning the public worship of the Church. We may notice the following particulars. I. THE SUBJECTS OF PUBLIC PRAYER . When the Church meets together in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ, it meets as pre-eminently the friend of the human race. As the Church of him who is the world's Savior and Redeemer, it must manifest the same spirit of universal love which animated him. It is not as being haters of the human race (as their enemies... read more

Desire for will , A.V.; the men for men , A.V.; in every place for everywhere , A.V.; disputing for doubting , A.V. I desire , etc. He takes up the subject again which he had opened in 1 Timothy 2:1 , but had somewhat digressed from in 1 Timothy 2:4-7 , and gives further directions as to the persons who are to make the prayers spoken of in 1 Timothy 2:1 , viz. men ( τοὺς ἄνδρας ), not women, as it follows more at large in 1 Timothy 2:9-15 . The stress... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - 1 Timothy 2:9

In like manner for in like manner also , A.V. and T.R.; braided for broided , A.V.; and gold for or gold , A.V.; raiment for array , A.V. The apostle here passes on to the duties of women as members of the congregation, and he places first modesty of demeanor and dress, the contrary to these being likely to prove a hurt and a hindrance to their fellow-worshippers. Adorn themselves in modest apparel. This is obviously the true construction, κοσμεῖν depending upon ... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - 1 Timothy 2:10

Through for with , A.V. (The change from "with" to "through" is quite unnecessary, though more strictly accurate. "With" does equally well for ἐν and διά , the one applied to the ornaments and dress in or with which the woman adorns herself, the other to the good works by which she is adorned.) Professing godliness. In all ether passages in the New Testament where it occurs, ἐπαγγέλλεσθαι means "to promise," except in 1 Timothy 6:21 , where, as here, it means "to... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - 1 Timothy 2:8

I will therefore - The Greek word here (βοὺλομαι boulomai) is different from the word rendered “will” - θέλω thelō - in 1 Timothy 2:4. The distinction is, that the word there used - θέλω thelō - denotes an active volition or purpose; the word here used - βοὺλομαι boulomai - a mere passive desire, propensity, willingness. Robinson’s Lexicon The meaning here is, “it is my will” - expressing his wish in the case, or giving direction - though using a milder word than that which is commonly... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - 1 Timothy 2:9

In like manner also - That is, with the same propriety; with the same regard to what religion demands. The apostle had stated particularly the duty of men in public worship 1 Timothy 2:8, and he now proceeds to state the duty of women. All the directions here evidently refer to the proper manner of conducting public worship, and not to private duties; and the object here is to state the way in which he would have the different sexes appear. He had said that he would have prayers offered for all... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - 1 Timothy 2:10

with good works}But (which becometh women professing godliness) with good works - That is, it is not appropriate for women who profess to be the followers of the Saviour, to seek to be distinguished for personal, external decorations. If they are Christians, they have seen the vanity of these things, and have fixed the heart on more substantial realities. They are professed followers of Him “who went about doing good,” and the performance of good works especially becomes them. They profess to... read more
