SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 2:1–13: Timothy should be willing to endure hardship as he serves Jesus Christ

Paragraph 2:3–7

In this paragraph Paul compared Christians to three types of people in order to give Timothy three different instructions.

  1. As a soldier endures hardship, endure hardship for the Lord.

  2. As an athlete is self-disciplined, be self-disciplined.

  3. As a farmer works hard, work hard for the Lord.

In 2:3 Paul explicitly stated one of the two main themes of the letter. That theme is that a Christian who wants to serve the Lord must be like a loyal soldier. He must be willing to endure suffering.

2:7a

Consider what I am saying,

Consider what I am saying: Paul told Timothy to Consider or “think about” the meaning of the three comparisons in 2:4–6. In some languages it may be more natural to start this command with Timothy’s name. For example, “Timothy, think about what I am saying.”

2:7b

for the Lord will give you insight into all things.

for the Lord will give you insight into all things: By thinking about the soldier, the athlete, and the farmer, the Lord would help Timothy understand Paul’s illustrations. Timothy would also understand how to apply to his own ministry the lessons he learned from these comparisons.

for: The conjunction for connects 2:7a and 2:7b. This is the first word of the clause that contains the reason why Timothy was to think about what Paul was saying.

the Lord: Here the Lord refers to the Lord God.

insight: The Greek word that the BSB translates as insight also means “understanding.” This is the way most other English versions translate this word.

General Comment on 2:7a–b

Here are some other ways to translate 2:7a–b:

If you reflect on what I am saying, the Lord will help you understand all this.

Reflect on what I am saying, and the Lord will help you understand all this.

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

νόει ὃ λέγω

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Νόει ὅ λέγω δώσει γάρ σοί ὁ Κύριος σύνεσιν ἐν πᾶσιν)

Here Paul means that Timothy should Think about what Paul has written about soldiers, athletes, and farmers ([2:4–6](../02/04.md)). He wants Timothy to apply these examples to himself as he serves Jesus. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make that idea more explicit. Alternate translation: [Think about the examples I have given] or [Think about what I have said about soldiers, athletes, and farmers]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

δώσει & σοι & σύνεσιν

˓will_be˒_giving & (Some words not found in SR-GNT: Νόει ὅ λέγω δώσει γάρ σοί ὁ Κύριος σύνεσιν ἐν πᾶσιν)

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of understanding, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: [will help you to understand]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ἐν πᾶσιν

in all_‹things›

Here the phrase in everything could refer to: (1) everything related to the three examples that Paul has given to Timothy in the previous verses. Alternate translation: [about everything that I have just said] or [about all those examples] (2) everything that Timothy needs to know to serve Jesus well. Alternate translation: [about everything that you need to know] or [about all things related to serving him]

TSN Tyndale Study Notes:

2:1-13 Timothy is again told to be strong and to endure suffering along with Paul (2:1-7; see 1:8). Timothy’s obedience should be motivated by reflecting on the Good News and on Paul’s example (2:8-13).
