Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

2 Timothy 4:14

_ _ Alexander the coppersmith — or “smith” in general. Perhaps the same as the Alexander (see on 1 Timothy 1:20) at Ephesus. Excommunicated then he subsequently was restored, and now vented his personal malice because of his excommunication in accusing Paul before the Roman judges, whether of incendiarism or of introducing a new religion. See my Introduction. He may have been the Alexander put forward by the Jews in the tumult at Ephesus (Acts 19:33, Acts 19:34).

_ _ reward — The oldest manuscripts read, “shall reward,” or “requite him.” Personal revenge certainly did not influence the apostle (2 Timothy 4:16, end).

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on 2 Timothy 4:9-15.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

2 Timothy 4:14

The Lord will reward him — This he spoke prophetically.
