Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Homiletical Commentary: On the Epistles of St. Paul the Apostle to Timothy, Titus, Philemon Timothy was the son of a Christian Jewess named Eunice and a Greek whose name is unknown. Though nothing can be said definitely as to the place of his birth, Acts xvi. I would seem to indicate that it was Lystra or some place in the immediate neighbourhood. There St. Paul first made his acquaintance, when he was already a disciple. Paul, after circumcising him by way of expedient, adopted him as his fellow-worker. They journeyed together through Asia Minor to Philippi. At Beroea we find them together again. Thence he followed St. Paul to Athens, and was sent on to Thessalonica; and having fulfilled his mission there, returned to St. Paul at Corinth. He was with the apostle during his residence in Ephesus, and also when the epistles to the Corinthians and Romans were written. When St. Paul was a prisoner at Rome, Timothy was still with him. The apostle´s high regard for his junior is evident in many ways. Though of frail health, he was the true child of an indomitable father in the gospel who had "no other like-minded." Date and circumstances of writing the epistle. - Considering (a) the close resemblances of the Pastorals, it seems incredible that they are separated by any long intervals of time. (b) The almost insuperable difficulties of fitting them into the period covered by the Acts of the Apostles. (c) The even greater difficulty of harmonising their notes of time and place with those mentioned by St. Luke.
