1 Timothy 5:5 - Forerunner Commentary

1 Timothy 5:5

Honor True Widows

3 Honor widows who are really widows.

4 But if any widow has children or grandchildren, let them first learn to show piety at home and ^ato repay their parents; for this is¹ good and acceptable before God.

5 Now she who is really a widow, and left alone, trusts in God and continues in supplications and prayers ^anight and day.

6 But she who lives in¹ pleasure is dead while she lives.

7 And these things command, that they may be blameless.
