Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

1 Timothy 5:10

_ _ for good worksGreek, “IN honorable (excellent) works”; the sphere or element in which the good report of her had place (Titus 2:7). This answers to 1 Timothy 3:7, as to the bishop or presbyter, “He must have a good report of them which are without.”

_ _ if — if, in addition to being “well reported of.”

_ _ she ... brought up children — either her own (1 Timothy 3:4, 1 Timothy 3:12), or those of others, which is one of the “good works”; a qualification adapting her for ministry to orphan children, and to mothers of families.

_ _ lodged strangers1 Timothy 3:2, “given to hospitality” (Titus 1:8); in the case of presbyters.

_ _ washed ... saints’ feet — after the example of the Lord (John 13:14); a specimen of the universal spirit of humbly “by love serving one another,” which actuated the early Christians.

_ _ relieved the afflicted — whether by pecuniary or other relief.

_ _ followed ... good — (1 Thessalonians 5:15; compare instances in Matthew 25:35, Matthew 25:36).

Matthew Henry's Commentary
