Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed for doing comparisons of different translations. Click on any Bible version abbreviation down the left-hand side to see the verse in more of its context. The OET segments on this page are still very early looks into the unfinished texts of the Open English Translation of the Bible. Please double-check these texts in advance before using in public.

4:14 Alexander was a common name (cp. Mark 15:21; Acts 4:6; 19:33). Alexander the coppersmith was probably the same person as in 1 Tim 1:20.
• did me much harm: Apparently he did more than merely oppose Paul’s teaching. Perhaps he had a hand in Paul’s arrest.
