“But a lover of hospitality, a lover of good men, sober, just, holy, temperate;”
King James Version (KJV)
1:6 The husband of one wife - Surely the Holy Ghost, by repeating this so often, designed to leave the Romanists without excuse.
1:7 As the steward of God - To whom he intrusts immortal souls. Not selfwilled - Literally, pleasing himself; but all men for their good to edification. Not passionate - But mild, yielding, tender.
1:9 As he hath been taught - Perhaps it might be more literally rendered, according to the teaching, or doctrine, of the apostles; alluding to #Acts 2:42|.
1:10 They of the circumcision - The Jewish converts.
Tit 1:8 A lover of hospitality. See PNT "1Ti 3:2".
