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

Bible Comments

OLBGrk;

To speak evil of no man; Greek, to blaspheme no man. Blasphemy is a speaking evil, whether it be applied to God or man, though use hath so obtained, that we only in common discourse speak of blaspheming God. To be no brawlers; to be no fighters, (amacouv) neither with hands nor tongues. But gentle; to be modest, fair, equitable men. Showing all meekness unto all men; forbearing wrath and passion in their converse with all.

Titus 3:2

2 To speak evil of no man, to be no brawlers, but gentle, shewing all meekness unto all men.
