Titus 3:2
_ _ To speak evil of no man — especially, not of “dignities” and magistrates.
_ _ no brawlers — “not quarrelsome,” not attacking others.
_ _ gentle — towards those who attack us. Yielding, considerate, not urging one’s rights to the uttermost, but forbearing and kindly (see on Philippians 4:5). Very different from the innate greediness and spirit of aggression towards others which characterized the Cretans.
_ _ showing — in acts.
_ _ all — all possible.
_ _ meekness — (See on 2 Corinthians 10:1); the opposite of passionate severity.
_ _ unto all men — The duty of Christian conduct towards all men is the proper consequence of the universality of God’s grace to all men, so often set forth in the pastoral Epistles. |
Titus 3:2
To speak evil — Neither of them nor any man. Not to be quarrelsome — To assault none. To be gentle — When assaulted. Toward all men — Even those who are such as we were. |
