Lois

Lois [N] [E] [H]

(agreeable ), the grandmother of Timothy, and doubtless the mother of his mother, Eunice. ( 2 Timothy 1:5 ) It seems likely that Lois had resided long at Lystra; and almost certain that from her, as well as from Eunice, Timothy obtained his intimate knowledge of the Jewish Scriptures. ( 2 Timothy 3:15 ) (A.D. before 64.)
