Barnes' Notes

<< 1 Timothy 1:1

1 Timothy 1:3 >>

1 Timothy 1:2

Unto Timothy - For an account of Timothy, see Intro. Section 1.

My own son in the faith - Converted to the Christian faith by my instrumentality, and regarded by me with the affection of a father; see notes, I Corinthians 4:15. Paul had no children of his own, and he adopted Timothy as a son, and uniformly regarded and treated him as such. He had the same feeling also toward Titus; Titus 1:4; compare Galatians 4:19 note; I Thessalonians 2:7, I Thessalonians 2:11 notes; and Philemon 1:10 note.

Grace, mercy, and peace, ... - See the notes, Romans 1:7.
