Overview

A detailed and accessible commentary on the First Epistle to Timothy, providing valuable insight into Paul's treatment of heresy and the role of women.

In a thorough and insightful commentary on Paul's letter to his co-worker Timothy, which the Apostle wrote before and during Nero's persecution, Aída Besançon Spencer carefully examines each part of the letter and relates it to the overall flow of the argument and in light of the larger biblical, historical, social, and cultural contexts.
