2 Timothy 1:12

_ _ For the which cause — For the Gospel cause of which I was appointed a preacher (2 Timothy 1:10, 2 Timothy 1:11).

_ _ I also suffer — besides my active work as a missionary. Ellicott translates, “I suffer even these things”; the sufferings attendant on my being a prisoner (2 Timothy 1:8, 2 Timothy 1:15).

_ _ I am not ashamed — neither be thou (2 Timothy 1:8).

_ _ for — Confidence as to the future drives away shame [Bengel].

_ _ I know — though the world knows Him not (John 10:14; John 17:25).

_ _ whom — I know what a faithful, promise-keeping God He is (2 Timothy 2:13). It is not, I know how I have believed, but, I know WHOM I have believed; a feeble faith may clasp a strong Savior.

_ _ believed — rather, “trusted”; carrying out the metaphor of a depositor depositing his pledge with one whom he trusts.

_ _ am persuaded — (Romans 8:38).

_ _ he is able — in spite of so many foes around me.

_ _ that which I have committed unto him — Greek, “my deposit”; the body, soul, and spirit, which I have deposited in God’s safe keeping (1 Thessalonians 5:23; 1 Peter 4:19). So Christ Himself in dying (Luke 23:46). “God deposits with us His word; we deposit with God our spirit” [Grotius]. There is one deposit (His revelation) committed by God to us, which we ought to keep (2 Timothy 1:13, 2 Timothy 1:14) and transmit to others (2 Timothy 2:2); there is another committed by God to us, which we should commit to His keeping, namely, ourselves and our heavenly portion.

_ _ that day — the day of His appearing (2 Timothy 1:18; 2 Timothy 4:8).

See commentary on 2 Timothy 1:6-14.

2 Timothy 1:12

That which I have committed to him — My soul. Until that day — Of his final appearing.

2 Timothy 1:12

⁽⁶⁾ For the which cause I also suffer these things: ⁽⁷⁾ nevertheless I am not ashamed: for I know whom I have believed, and am persuaded that he is able to keep that which I have committed unto him against that day.

⁽⁶⁾ He confirms his apostleship by a strange argument, that is, because the world could not abide it, and therefore it persecuted him that preached it. ⁽⁷⁾ By setting his own example before us, he shows us how it may be, that we will not be ashamed of the cross of Christ, that is, if we are sure that God both can and will keep the salvation which he has as it were laid up in store by himself for us against that day.
