Titus 1:7 - Forerunner Commentary

Titus 1:7

Qualified Elders

5 For this reason I left you in Crete, that you should ^aset in order the things that are lacking, and appoint elders in every city as I commanded you—

6 if a man is blameless, the husband of one wife, ^ahaving faithful children not accused of¹ dissipation or insubordination.

7 For a¹ bishop must be blameless, as a steward of God, not self-willed, not quick-tempered, ^anot given to wine, not violent, not greedy for money,

8 but hospitable, a lover of what is good, sober-minded, just, holy, self-controlled,

9 holding fast the faithful word as he has been taught, that he may be able, by sound doctrine, both to exhort and convict those who contradict.
