2 Timothy 2:3 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

Endure hardness; in the Greek it is, suffer evils, that is evils of affliction, expect them, and encounter and patiently eudure them. As a good soldier of Jesus Christ; remembering that the life of a minister is not a life of ease and pleasure, but the life of a soldier, whose life is a life of hardship, exposed to numberless hazards and dangers.

2 Timothy 2:3

3 Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ.
