2 Timothy 1:10-11

The Pulpit Commentary - 2 Timothy 1:8-18

Constancy in the hour of danger. There are great differences of natural temperament in different men. There are those whose courage is naturally high. Their instinct is to brave danger, and to be confident of overcoming it. They do not know what nervousness, or sinking of heart, or the devices of timidity, mean.

Hath now been manifested ( φανερωθεῖσαν ); a word of very frequent use by St. Paul. The same contrast between the long time during which God's gracious purpose lay hidden, and the present time when it was brought to light by the gospel, which is contained in this passage, is forcibly dwelt upon... read more

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

But is now made manifest - The purpose to save us was long concealed in the divine mind, but the Saviour came that he might make it known.Who hath abolished death - That is, he has made it so certain that death will be abolished, that it may be spoken of as already done. It is remarkable how often, in this chapter, Paul speaks of what God intends to do as so certain, that it may be spoken of as a thing that is already done. In the meaning of the expression here, see the notes at 1 Corinthians... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - 2 Timothy 1:1-18

1:1-2:13 ENCOURAGEMENT TO TIMOTHYNeed for courage and faithfulness (1:1-18)Paul recalls the time when he left Timothy behind in Ephesus, and remembers how Timothy wept as they parted. He longs to see him again (1:1-4). No doubt the quality of Timothy’s faith, which so attracted Paul to him, was largely the result of a godly upbringing by those of sincere faith (5). At the beginning of Timothy’s ministry Paul had shown publicly that he believed Timothy to be divinely gifted for his work. He... read more
