2 Timothy 1:12

For the which cause—For the Gospel cause of which I was appointed a preacher (II Timothy 1:10-11).

I also suffer—besides my active work as a missionary. ELLICOTT translates, "I suffer even these things"; the sufferings attendant on my being a prisoner (II Timothy 1:8, II Timothy 1:15).

I am not ashamed—neither be thou (II Timothy 1:8).

for—Confidence as to the future drives away shame [BENGEL].

I know—though the world knows Him not (John 10:14; John 17:25).

whom—I know what a faithful, promise-keeping God He is (II Timothy 2:13). It is not, I know how I have believed, but, I know WHOM I have believed; a feeble faith may clasp a strong Saviour.

believed—rather, "trusted"; carrying out the metaphor of a depositor depositing his pledge with one whom he trusts.

am persuaded— (Romans 8:38).

he is able—in spite of so many foes around me.

that which I have committed unto him—Greek, "my deposit"; the body, soul, and spirit, which I have deposited in God's safe keeping (I Thessalonians 5:23; I Peter 4:19). So Christ Himself in dying (Luke 23:46). "God deposits with us His word; we deposit with God our spirit" [GROTIUS]. There is one deposit (His revelation) committed by God to us, which we ought to keep (II Timothy 1:13-14) and transmit to others (II Timothy 2:2); there is another committed by God to us, which we should commit to His keeping, namely, ourselves and our heavenly portion.

that day—the day of His appearing (II Timothy 1:18; II Timothy 4:8).
