Teach Sound Doctrine
1But as for you, teach what accords with 2:1 See 1 Tim. 1:10sound2:1 Or healthy; also verses 2, 8 doctrine.
2Older men are to be sober-minded, dignified, self-controlled, 2:2 [See ver. 1above]sound in faith, in love, and in steadfastness.
32:3 [1 Tim. 2:9] Older women likewise are to be reverent in behavior, 2:3 1 Tim. 3:11not slanderers 2:3 [1 Tim. 3:8; 5:23]or slaves to much wine. They are to teach what is good,
4and so train the young women to love their husbands and children,
5to be self-controlled, 2:5 1 Pet. 3:2pure, 2:5 [1 Tim. 5:14] working at home, kind, and 2:5 See Gen. 3:16submissive to their own husbands, 2:5 See 1 Tim. 6:1that the word of God may not be reviled.
6Likewise, urge 2:6 1 Tim. 5:1the younger men to be self-controlled.
7Show yourself in all respects to be 2:7 1 Tim. 4:12; 1 Pet. 5:3a model of good works, and in your teaching 2:7 [2 Cor. 11:3] show integrity, 2:7 1 Tim. 2:2dignity,
8and 2:8 [1 Tim. 6:3] sound speech that cannot be condemned, 2:8 Neh. 5:9; 1 Tim. 5:14; 1 Pet. 2:12; 3:16so that an opponent may be put to shame, having nothing evil to say about us.
92:9 See 1 Pet. 2:18Bondservants2:9 For the contextual rendering of the Greek word doulos, see Preface are to be submissive to their own masters 2:9 [Col. 3:22]in everything; they are to be well-pleasing, not argumentative,
10not pilfering, 2:10 [1 Tim. 3:11] but showing all good faith, 2:10 Matt. 5:16; Phil. 2:15so that in everything they may adorn the doctrine of God our Savior.
11For 2:11 ch. 3:7; See Acts 11:23the grace of God 2:11 ch. 3:4has appeared, bringing salvation 2:11 [Ps. 67:2]; See 1 Tim. 2:4for all people,
12training us to renounce ungodliness and 2:12 1 Pet. 4:2; 1 John 2:16worldly passions, and 2:12 2 Tim. 3:12; [Acts 24:25] to live self-controlled, upright, and godly lives in 2:12 1 Tim. 6:17; 2 Tim. 4:10the present age,
132:13 See 1 Cor. 1:7; 2 Pet. 3:12waiting for our blessed 2:13 See ch. 1:2hope, the 2:13 See 2 Thess. 2:8appearing of the glory of our great 2:13 2 Pet. 1:1God and Savior Jesus Christ,
142:14 See Matt. 20:28who gave himself for us to 2:14 Ps. 130:8; See 1 Pet. 1:18redeem us from all lawlessness and 2:14 Ezek. 37:23; See Ex. 19:5to purify for himself 2:14 Ezek. 37:23; See Ex. 19:5a people for his own possession who are 2:14 ch. 3:8; Eph. 2:10zealous for good works.
15Declare these things; exhort and 2:15 ch. 1:13; 1 Tim. 5:20rebuke with all authority. 2:15 See 1 Tim. 4:12Let no one disregard you.
