Footnotes

  1. 17 Grk “in you.”
  2. 18 Grk “which was given to you through prophecy.” Here as in 2:15 the preposition “through” denotes not “means” but accompanying circumstances: “accompanied by prophecy.” These prophetic words perhaps spoke of what God would do through Timothy in his ministry (cf. 1 Tim 1:18).
  3. 19 Grk “with the imposition of the hands of the presbytery” (i.e., the council of elders).
