2 Timothy 1:18 - Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible

Bible Comments

The Lord grant unto him that he may find mercy of the Lord in that day: and in how many things he ministered unto me at Ephesus, thou knowest very well.

Grant unto him - as well as 'unto his house' (2 Timothy 1:16). Of, х para (G3844)] - 'from the Lord' is put instead of 'from Himself,' for solemnity and emphasis (2 Thessalonians 3:5).

The Lord - who rewards a kindness done to His disciples as done to Himself (Matthew 25:45).

In how many things - `how many acts of ministry he rendered.'

Unto me. Omitted in 'Aleph (') A C Delta G, so that "ministered" includes services to others as well as to Paul.

Very well ( Beltion (G957)) - 'better' (than I can tell thee, seeing thou art a resident at Ephesus).
