1 Timothée 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 Timothée 5:1 In-Context

1 Ne réprimande pas rudement le vieillard, mais exhorte-le comme un père; exhorte les jeunes gens comme des frères,
2 les femmes âgées comme des mères, celles qui sont jeunes comme des soeurs, en toute pureté.
3 Honore les veuves qui sont véritablement veuves.
4 Si une veuve a des enfants ou des petits-enfants, qu'ils apprennent avant tout à exercer la piété envers leur propre famille, et à rendre à leurs parents ce qu'ils ont reçu d'eux; car cela est agréable à Dieu.
5 Celle qui est véritablement veuve, et qui est demeurée dans l'isolement, met son espérance en Dieu et persévère nuit et jour dans les supplications et les prières.
