What does 1 Timothy 3:3-6 mean? Commentary, explanation and study verse by verse.
Not given to wine, no striker, not greedy of filthy lucre; but patient, not a brawler, not covetous;
One that ruleth well his own house, having his children in subjection with all gravity;
(For if a man know not how to rule his own house, how shall he take care of the church of God?)
Not a novice,a lest being lifted up with pride he fall into the condemnation of the devil.
