People's Commentary (NT)
I Timothy 2:2 For kings, and [for] all that are in authority. For all rulers over us. This duty is not dependent on the righteousness of the rulers. The Roman emperors were intensely wicked. Jews were enjoined to pray for their heathen rules (Jeremiah 29:7 Ezr 6:10). That we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty. The special object of these prayers is that the earthly rulers may be so overruled that Christians shall live and worship in peace. Wars, seditions and persecutions would be injurious to the saints.
