Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Titus 3:12

_ _ When I shall send — have sent.

_ _ Artemas or Tychicus — to supply thy place in Crete. Artemas is said to have been subsequently bishop of Lystra. Tychicus was sent twice by Paul from Rome to Lesser Asia in his first imprisonment (which shows how well qualified he was to become Titus’ successor in Crete); Ephesians 6:21; and in his second, 2 Timothy 4:12. Tradition makes him subsequently bishop of Chalcedon, in Bithynia.

_ _ Nicopolis — “the city of victory,” called so from the battle of Actium, in Epirus. This Epistle was probably written from Corinth in the autumn. Paul purposed a journey through Aetolia and Acarnania, into Epirus, and there “to winter.” See my Introduction to the Pastoral Epistles.

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Titus 3:9-15.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Titus 3:12

When I shall send Artemas or Tychicus — To succeed thee in thy office. Titus was properly an evangelist, who, according to the nature of that office, had no fixed residence; but presided over other elders, wherever he travelled from place to place, assisting each of the apostles according to the measure of his abilities. Come to me to Nicopolis — Very probably not the Nicopolis in Macedonia, as the vulgar subscription asserts: (indeed, none of those subscriptions at the end of St. Paul's epistles are of any authority:) rather it was a town of the same name which lay upon the sea — coast of Epirus. For I have determined to winter there — Hence it appears, he was not there yet; if so, he would have said, to winter here. Consequently, this letter was not written from thence.

Geneva Bible Translation Notes

Titus 3:12

(5) When I shall send Artemas unto thee, or Tychicus, be diligent to come unto me to Nicopolis: for I have determined there to winter.

(5) Last of all, he writes a word or two regarding personal matters, and commends certain men.
