1 Timoteo 5:1

1 Al anciano no riñas, sino exhórtalo como a padre; a los más jóvenes, como a hermanos

1 Timoteo 5:1 Meaning and Commentary

Ver. 1. Rebuke not an elder
By whom is meant, not an elder1 Timothy 5:2

The elder women as mothers
When they offend in any point, they are to be reasoned, and argued, and pleaded with, as children should with their mothers; see ( Hosea 2:2 ) and are to be considered as mothers in Israel, and to be treated with great tenderness and respect. The younger as sisters;
using the freedom as a brother may with a sister; and considering them as sisters in Christ, and in a way becoming the relation, tell them their faults freely and privately, but with all purity:
in such manner as to preserve chastity in looks, in words, and actions.

1 Timoteo 5:1 In-Context

1 Al anciano no riñas, sino exhórtalo como a padre; a los más jóvenes, como a hermanos

2 a las ancianas, como a madres; a las jovencitas, como a hermanas, con toda limpieza

3 Honra a las viudas que en verdad son viudas

4 Y si alguna viuda tuviere hijos, o nietos, aprendan éstos primero a gobernar su casa piadosamente, y a recompensar a sus padres, porque esto es lo honesto y agradable delante de Dios

5 Ahora, la que en verdad es viuda y sola, espera en Dios, y es diligente en súplicas y oraciones noche y día
