Tito 1:8 Meaning and Commentary

Titus 3:8

But a lover of hospitality (See Gill on 1 Timothy 3:2)

a lover of good men,
or "of good"; the Syriac version renders it, "of good things"; as prayer, preaching, reading, meditation, spiritual conversation, and every religious exercise: or "of good men"; for such an elder or bishop has chiefly to do and converse with; and if he is not a lover of them, their company will be disagreeable to him, and he will be of no advantage to them; and if he does not love the souls of men, he will not naturally care for their state, or be concerned for their good.

Sober:
in body, using moderation in diet and dress; and in mind, being prudent, modest, and humble, and thinking soberly of himself, and others, as he ought.

Just;
righteous in his dealings with men, giving to everyone their due; upright and sincere in his conversation with the saints; and faithful in his counsel, admonitions, and reproofs.

Holy;
devout towards God, constant in all religious exercises in the closet, family, and church; and living soberly, righteously, and godly in the world.

Temperate;
in eating and drinking; continent from the lusts of the flesh; and even abstaining from those things which might be lawfully used, though inexpedient, for the sake of the weak, the peace of the church, and the glory of God.

Tito 1:8 In-Context

6 El anciano debe llevar una vida intachable. Tiene que serle fiel a su esposa,
y sus hijos deben ser creyentes que no tengan una reputación de ser desenfrenados ni rebeldes.
7 Pues un anciano
es un administrador de la casa de Dios, y debe vivir de manera intachable. No debe ser arrogante, ni iracundo, ni emborracharse,
ni ser violento, ni deshonesto con el dinero.
8 Al contrario, debe recibir huéspedes en su casa con agrado y amar lo que es bueno. Debe vivir sabiamente y ser justo. Tiene que llevar una vida de devoción y disciplina.
9 Debe tener una fuerte creencia en el mensaje fiel que se le enseñó; entonces podrá animar a otros con la sana enseñanza y demostrar a los que se oponen en qué están equivocados.
10 Pues hay muchos rebeldes que participan en conversaciones inútiles y engañan a otros. Me refiero especialmente a los que insisten en que es necesario circuncidarse para ser salvo.
