“Grace be to you and peace from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.”
King James Version (KJV)
1:1 Timotheus our brother - St. Paul writing to Timotheus styled him his son; writing of him, his brother.
1:3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ - A solemn and beautiful introduction, highly suitable to the apostolical spirit. The Father of mercies, and God of all comfort - Mercies are the fountain of comfort; comfort is the outward expression of mercy. God shows mercy in the affliction itself. He gives comfort both in and after the affliction. Therefore is he termed, the God of all comfort. Blessed be this God!
1:4 Who comforteth us in all our affliction, that we may be able to comfort them who are in any affliction - He that has experienced one kind of affliction is able to comfort others in that affliction. He that has experienced all kinds of affliction is able to comfort them in all.
2Co 1:2 Grace [be] to you, and peace. See PNT "1Co 1:3".
Grace bee to you and peace, from God our Father, and from the Lord Iesus Christ.
