2 Timothy 1:5

5 calling to mind [a] the unfeigned faith which [has been] [b] in thee, which dwelt first in thy grandmother Lois, and in thy mother Eunice, and I am persuaded that in thee also.

2 Timothy 1:5 In-Context

3 I am thankful to God, whom I serve from [my] forefathers with pure conscience, how unceasingly I have the remembrance of thee in my supplications night and day,
4 earnestly desiring to see thee, remembering thy tears, that I may be filled with joy;
5 calling to mind the unfeigned faith which [has been] in thee, which dwelt first in thy grandmother Lois, and in thy mother Eunice, and I am persuaded that in thee also.
6 For which cause I put thee in mind to rekindle the gift of God which is in thee by the putting on of my hands.
7 For God has not given us a spirit of cowardice, but of power, and of love, and of wise discretion.

  • [a]. Or, 'I am thankful ... calling to mind.'
  • [b]. A verb is needed in English, and 'has been' is warranted by the apostle's 'calling to mind.'
