El autor, George W. Knight, presta cuidadosa atencion a los comentarios de interpretes anteriores tanto antiguos como recientes. Sin embargo, su enfasis es en la exegesis del texto griego mismo y en el flujo del argumento en cada una de estas tres Epistolas.
Ademas de proveer un analisis detallado de los significados e interrelaciones de las palabras griegas como aparecen en su contexto, el comentario de Knight incluye una introduccion que examina meticulosamente la cuestion de autoria (el argumenta por la autoria de Pablo y propone, en base a las caracteristicas de estilo, que Lucas podria haber sido el amanuense para estas Epistolas). Ademas incluye el trasfondo historico de estas cartas, y las personalidades y circunstancias de los destinatarios.
Knight tambien aporta dos excursus especiales: el primero reune informacion sobre los lideres y oficios eclesiasticos tanto en las Pastorales como en el resto del Nuevo Testamento; el otro excurso o digresion examina las motivaciones para la conducta exigida en Tito 2:1-10 y su aplicabilidad para las situaciones del dia de hoy.
This is a thorough, full-scale English commentary on the Greek text of 1 and 2 Timothy and Titus. While author George W. Knight gives careful attention to the comments of previous interpreters of the text, both ancient and modern, his emphasis is on exegesis of the Greek text itself and on the flow of the argument in each of these three epistles.
Besides providing a detailed look at the meanings and interrelationships of the Greek words as they appear in each context, Knight's commentary includes an introduction that treats at length the question of authorship (he argues for Pauline authorship and proposes, on the basis of stylistic features, that Luke might have been the amanuensis for the Pastoral Epistles), the historical background of these letters, and the personalities and circumstances of the recipients.
Knight also provides two special excursuses: the first gathers together the information in the Pastorals and elsewhere in the New Testament on early church offices and leaders; the other excursus examines the motivations for conduct in Titus 2:1-10 with a view to their applicability to present-day situations.
