2 Timothy 3:3 - Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible

Bible Comments

Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,

Without natural affection, х astorgoi (G794)] - love between parents and children, and similar relationships.

Truce-breakers, х aspondoi (G786): asunthetoi would be truce-breakers] - rather, as Romans 1:31, "implacable."

False accusers (1 Timothy 3:11). Incontinent, fierce - at once both soft and hard: without control over themselves, and inhuman [anemeroi: 'untamed'] to others.

Despisers ... - `no friends of good,' х afilagathoi (G865)]: the opposite of 'a lover of good' (Titus 1:8).
