1 Timothy 1:3

Even as [κ α θ ω ς]. An awkward construction, there being nothing to answer to kaqwv.

To abide [π ρ ο σ μ ε ι ν α ι]. To continue on. The compound does not occur in Paul, but is found in Acts 11:23; Acts 13:43; Acts 18:18.

When I went [π ο ρ ε υ ο μ ε ν ο ς]. Better, was going, or was on my way. The participle cannot refer to Timothy.

Might'st charge [π α ρ α γ γ ε ι λ η ς] See on Acts 1:4. Very common in Luke and Acts, but not in Paul. In 1st Timothy alone five times.

Some [τ ι σ ι ν] Note the indefinite designation of the errorists, and comp. verse 6; 1 Timothy 4:1; 1 Timothy 5:15; 1 Timothy 5:24; 1 Timothy 6:21. The expression is contemptuous. It is assumed that Timothy knows who they are. This is after the Pauline manner. See Galatians 1:7; Galatians 2:12; 1 Corinthians 4:18; 1 Corinthians 14:12; 2 Corinthians 3:1; Colossians 2:4; Colossians 2:8.

That they teach no other doctrine [μ η ε τ ε ρ ο δ ι δ α σ κ α λ ε ι ν]. Better, not to teach a different doctrine. For eterov different, see on Galatians 1:6. The verb Past o. o LXX o Class. The charge is not to teach anything contrary to the sound teaching (verse 10) or irreconcilable with it. Comp. Galatians 1:6; 2 Corinthians 11:4; Romans 16:17.
