1 Timothy 5:9-10. Let not a widow be taken into the number Καταλεγεσθω , taken upon the list of those who are to be maintained by the church, and to attend upon the sick poor, and teach the young; under threescore years old It might, on many accounts, and for very obvious reasons, be proper that this office should be committed only to persons of an advanced age, and such as laid aside all thoughts of marrying again. Having been Neither a harlot nor a concubine; but the wife of one... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - 1 Timothy 5:1-16

5:1-6:21 VARIOUS KINDS OF PEOPLE IN THE CHURCHThe young, the old and the widows (5:1-16)It may at times have been difficult for Timothy to deal with those who were older or those who were of the opposite sex. Paul therefore reminds him to be careful how he treats people, and always to show fitting courtesy and to act with moral uprightness (5:1-2).The church must care for those of its members who are in need. But the church does not have a duty to support financially those elderly people who... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - 1 Timothy 5:3-16

1. Provisions for widows 5:3-16Paul gave instructions concerning the church’s responsibility for its widows to clarify how and for whom the church should provide special care. Widows have been and still are especially vulnerable individuals. As such God has always shown special concern for their protection (cf. Deuteronomy 10:18; Deuteronomy 24:17; Psalms 68:5; Isaiah 1:17; Luke 2:37). The early church normally mirrored His attitude (Acts 6:1; Acts 9:39). In the Greco-Roman world a female... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - 1 Timothy 5:9-10

Evidently the Ephesian church had a "list" of "widows indeed" who received regular support from the congregation. A widow had to meet three qualifications to get her name on this list.First, she had to be at least 60 years old. At this age most widows probably became incapable of providing for their own needs, and most would no longer have the opportunity to remarry."Sixty was the recognized age in antiquity when one became an ’old’ man or woman . . ." [Note: Kelly, p. 115.] Second, she had to... read more
