The author reads and comments on Chapter 1 of Book 3 in The Eden Book Series entitled "Back to Eden, 1 Timothy 2:8-3:16, Corrected and Restored by Jesus the Faithful Word."Did you know? Paul writes about three groups that corresponded to his three sins (blasphemers, persecutors and disrupters). The third group was made up of the wayward men and women overseers Timothy had been assigned to correct.1 Timothy 2:12 is only the second half of the Greek sentence that starts in verses 11. And it is the subordinate part.1 Timothy 3:1 is the center of the jump, jump, high jump pattern that runs from 1:18-3:16.
