Bible Commentaries
Abbott's Illustrated New Testament
1 Timothy 3
Verse 1
A bishop; literally, an overseer, an officer holding a general charge and superintendence in respect to the affairs of the church, with powers and duties adapted, in many respects, doubtless, to the peculiar circumstances and habits of the times.
Verse 9
The mystery of the faith; the gospel,--often spoken of as a mystery, on account of its having been long withheld from the knowledge of mankind.
Verse 10
Let these also first be proved; by time. As in the case of bishops, (1 Timothy 3:6,) they should not be novices.
Verse 16
x x x x x x
Manifest in the flesh; in the person of Christ. (John 1:1,14.) Justified in; vindicated by.
