1 Timothy - 5:1 Meaning
“Rebuke not an elder, but intreat him as a father; and the younger men as brethren;”
King James Version (KJV)
Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary
5:1-2 Respect must be paid to the dignity of years and place. The younger, if faulty, must be rebuked, not as desirous to find fault with them, but as willing to make the best of them. There is need of much meekness and care in reproving those who deserve reproof.
“And he removed from thence unto a mountain on the east of Bethel, and pitched his tent, having Bethel on the west, and Hai on the east: and there he builded an altar unto the LORD, and called upon the name of the LORD.”
