The Pulpit Commentary - 1 Timothy 2:6

The testimony to be borne in its own times for to be testified in due time , A.V. τὸ μαρτύριον καιροῖς ἰδιοις . This phrase is somewhat obscure, and is differently explained. But the most literal rendering and the best sense seems to be: " The testimony , at its proper time, to which I was appointed a preacher and an apostle," meaning that the mediation and redemption of Jesus Christ was the subject-matter of that testimony which he Paul was appointed to bear at the proper... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - 1 Timothy 2:3

For this is good and acceptable - That is, it is good and acceptable to God that we should pray for all people. The reason is, that he desires their salvation, and hence it is agreeable to him that we should pray for it. If there were no provision made for their salvation, or if he was unwilling that they should be saved, it could not be agreeable to him that we should offer prayer for them. read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - 1 Timothy 2:4

Who will have all men to be saved - That is, it is in accordance with his nature, his feelings, his desires. The word “will” cannot be taken here in the absolute sense, denoting a decree like that by which he willed the creation of the world, for then it would certainly be done. But the word is often used to denote a desire, wish, or what is in accordance with the nature of anyone. Thus it may be said of God that he “wills” that his creatures may be happy - because it is in accordance with his... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - 1 Timothy 2:5

For there is one God - This is a reason for offering prayer for all people, and for the declaration 1 Timothy 2:4 that God desires that all people should be saved. The reason is founded in the fact that he is the common Father of all the race, and that he must have the same desire for the welfare of all his children, He has made them of one blood Acts 17:26, and he must have the same interest in the happiness of all; compare Ephesians 4:6 note; Romans 3:30 note.And one Mediator between God and... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - 1 Timothy 2:6

Who gave himself a ransom for all - This also is stated as a reason why prayer should be offered for all, and a proof that God desires the salvation of all. The argument is, that as Christ died for all, it is proper to pray for all, and that the fact that he died for all is proof that God desired the salvation of all. Whatever proof of his desire for their salvation can be derived from this in relation to any of the race, is proof in relation to all. On the meaning of the phrase “he gave... read more

1 Timothy 2:2-4 . For kings Especially; and for all that are in authority “That is, for the ministers and counsellors of kings, and for the inferior magistrates, by whatever name they may be called, seeing even the lowest country magistrates frequently do much good or much harm. In the early times the Jews prayed for the heathen princes, who held them in captivity, (Ezra 6:10; Bar 1:10-11 ,) being directed by God so to do, Jeremiah 29:7.

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - 1 Timothy 2:1-15

2:1-4:16 CHURCH LEADERSHIP AND TEACHINGConduct in church meetings (2:1-15)Teachers of the kind Paul has described in Chapter 1 are usually narrow in their outlook and pray only for those of their own group. Christians should avoid such selfishness. They should pray for all without distinction, for God wants all to be saved (2:1-4). This salvation comes through the death of Jesus Christ. Paul rejoices that God has appointed him an apostle and teacher to make known this good news to the Gentiles... read more
