Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

1 Timothy 2:14

_ _ Adam was not deceived — as Eve was deceived by the serpent; but was persuaded by his wife. Genesis 3:17, “hearkened unto ... voice of ... wife.” But in Genesis 3:13, Eve says, “The serpent beguiled me.” Being more easily deceived, she more easily deceives [Bengel], (2 Corinthians 11:3). Last in being, she was first in sin — indeed, she alone was deceived. The subtle serpent knew that she was “the weaker vessel” (1 Peter 3:7). He therefore tempted her, not Adam. She yielded to the temptations of sense and the deceits of Satan; he, to conjugal love. Hence, in the order of God’s judicial sentence, the serpent, the prime offender, stands first; the woman, who was deceived, next; and the man, persuaded by his wife, last (Genesis 3:14-19). In Romans 5:12, Adam is represented as the first transgressor; but there no reference is made to Eve, and Adam is regarded as the head of the sinning race. Hence, as here, 1 Timothy 2:11, in Genesis 3:16, woman’s “subjection” is represented as the consequence of her being deceived.

_ _ being deceived — The oldest manuscripts read the compound Greek verb for the simple, “Having been seduced by deceit”: implying how completely Satan succeeded in deceiving her.

_ _ was in the transgressionGreek,came to be in the transgression”: became involved in the existing state of transgression, literally, “the going beyond a command”; breach of a positive precept (Romans 4:15).

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on 1 Timothy 2:9-15.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

1 Timothy 2:14

And Adam was not deceived — The serpent deceived Eve: Eve did not deceive Adam, but persuaded him. "Thou hast hearkened unto the voice of thy wife," Genesis 3:17. The preceding verse showed why a woman should not "usurp authority over the man." this shows why she ought not "to teach." She is more easily deceived, and more easily deceives. The woman being deceived transgressed — "The serpent deceived" her, Genesis 3:13, and she transgressed.

Geneva Bible Translation Notes

1 Timothy 2:14

(10) And Adam was not (g) deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression.

(10) Then, because after sin, God gave the woman this punishment, because the man was deceived by her.

(g) Adam was deceived, but through his wife's means, and therefore she is worthily for this reason subject to her husband, and ought to be.
