1 Timothy 2:14 - John Trapp Complete Commentary

Bible Comments

And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression.

Ver. 14. And Adam was not deceived] i.e. He was not deceived so much by his judgment (though also by that too) as by his affection to his wife, which at length blinded his judgment. Look we well to our affections; for by these maids Satan still wooeth the mistress.

Being deceived, was in the transgression] Uxor mea tota in fermento est, said he in Plautus. See Trapp on " Gen 3:6 " Yet Adam sinned more than Eve, because he had more wisdom and strength. He could set his affections as the artificer doth his clock, to make it strike when and what he will.
