Titus 1:8

Continent: [7] though both the Latin and Greek word signify in general, one that hath abstained, or contained, and overcome himself: yet it is particularly used for such as contain themselves from carnal pleasures. (Witham)

[BIBLIOGRAPHY]

Continentem, Greek: egkrate. The Protestant translate the verb, (1 Corinthians vii. 9.) If they cannot contain, let them marry.
