8 But I will tarry in Ephesus until aPentecost.

10 And aif Timothy comes, see that he may be with you without fear; for bhe does the work of the Lord, as I also do.  
11 aTherefore let no one despise him. But send him on his journey bin peace, that he may come to me; for I am waiting for him with the brethren.  
12 Now concerning our brother aApollos, I strongly urged him to come to you with the brethren, but he was quite unwilling to come at this time; however, he will come when he has a convenient time.

1 Corinthians 16:10

Now, if Timotheus come - Of Timothy we have heard before, I Corinthians 4:17. And we learn, from Acts 19:22, that Paul sent him with Erastus from Ephesus to Macedonia. It is evident, therefore, in opposition to the very exceptionable subscription at the end of this epistle, that the epistle itself was not sent by Timothy, as there stated.

That he may be with you without fear - That he may be treated well, and not perplexed and harassed with your divisions and jealousies; for he worketh the work of the Lord - he is Divinely appointed, as I also am.
