Titus 1:4

_ _ after the common faith — a genuine son in respect to (in virtue of) the faith common to all the people of God, comprising in a common brotherhood Gentiles as well as Jews, therefore embracing Titus a Gentile (2 Peter 1:1; Jude 1:3).
_ _ Grace, mercy, and peace — “mercy” is omitted in some of the oldest manuscripts. But one of the best and oldest manuscripts supports it (compare Notes, see on 1 Timothy 1:2; see on 2 Timothy 1:2). There are many similarities of phrase in the Pastoral Epistles.

_ _ our Saviour — found thus added to “Christ” only in Paul’s Pastoral Epistles, and in 2 Peter 1:1, 2 Peter 1:11; 2 Peter 2:20; 2 Peter 3:18. |
