1Timothy
5:1,2 Rebuke not an elder but intreat
him as a father and the younger men as brethren. Treat the elder women
as mothers, the younger as sisters, with all purity.(don't
be out to get into their pants).
1Timothy
5:3,4 Honour widows that are widows indeed. But if any widow have children
or nephews, let them learn first to show piety
at home and to requite
their parents. For that is good and acceptable before God.
1Timothy
5:5 Now she that is a widow indeed.(a
widow indeed:.Luke
2:36-38).and desolate.(original
for 'desolate' is 'alone', that is, not dating and thus not having a man),
trusts in God and continues in supplications
and prayers night and day.(what
does night and day mean here?).
1Timothy
5:6 But she that lives in pleasure.(lives
for the voluptuous
life).is dead while she lives.
1Timothy
5:7 And these things give in charge, that they may be blameless.
1Timothy
5:8 But if any provide not for his own and specially for those of his
own house, he has denied the faith and is worse than an infidel..(avoid
being a no good bum)
1Timothy
5:9 Let not a widow be taken into the number.(the
number of those widows in the early church who deeply regard spiritual
things, were provided for by the church).under
threescore years old.(60
years old; why? verse 11 below), having been the wife.(original
is 'woman').of one man.(one
man at a time; in other words not a 'run around'),
1Timothy
5:10 Well reported of for good works, if she have brought up children,
if she have lodged strangers, if she have washed the saints' feet, if she
have relieved the afflicted, if she have diligently followed every good
work.
1Timothy
5:11 But the younger widows refuse for when they have begun to wax
wanton.(original
means 'to awaken to a life that seems delicious to them and leaving behind
their previous mindset of the importance of God in their lives', like teeners
who awaken to their hormones and follow them, leaving all else of importance
behind {they usually come
back}).against Christ, they
will marry..(what
is of importance to the younger women was a physical relationship)
1Timothy
5:12 Having damnation because they have cast off their first faith..(?)
1Timothy
5:13 And withal they learn to be idle, wandering about from house to
house and not only idle, but tattlers.(bubblers,
excited to explain the plans and activities of others; gossiping).also
and busybodies.(meddling
or prying into
the affairs of others), speaking things which they ought
not.(gossipers).
1Timothy
5:14 I will therefore that the younger women marry,
bear children, guide the house, give none occasion
to the adversary to speak reproachfully..(learn
to live as ancient Daniel did, in such a way as no one could rail
against him:.Daniel
6:1-6)
1Timothy
5:15 For some are already turned aside after Satan.
Paul regarded
two directions a person could take; one being devoted to God and the other,
a sideways looking at what's the world got for me out there?
1Timothy
5:16,17 If any man or woman that believes have widows let them relieve
them and let not the church be charged, that it may relieve them that are
widows indeed. Let the elders that rule well be counted worthy of double
honour, especially they who labour in the word and doctrine.
1Timothy
5:18 For the scripture says, Thou shalt not muzzle the ox that treads
out the corn. And, The labourer is worthy of his reward.
1Timothy
5:19 Against an elder receive not an accusation, unless it's provided
by two or three witnesses.
1Timothy
5:20 Them that sin
rebuke before all, that others also may fear.
1Timothy
5:21 I charge thee before God and the Lord Emmanuel the Christ and
the elect angels.(as
compared to other angels that left their first estate:.Jude
1:6).that you observe these
things without preferring
one before another and doing nothing by partiality.
1Timothy
5:22,23 Lay hands suddenly on no man, neither be partaker of other
men's sins. Keep yourself pure. Drink no longer water but use a little
wine for your stomach's sake and your often infirmities.
1Timothy
5:24 Some men's sins are open beforehand going before to judgment and
some men they follow after.
1Timothy
5:25 Likewise also the good works of some are manifest beforehand,
and they that are otherwise cannot be hid.
