1 Timoteo 5:12 Meaning and Commentary

Ver. 12 Having damnation]
Not for their second marriage, but for their wantonness against Christ, or their sinful and luxurious way of living, contrary to the Gospel of Christ: and this is to be understood not of eternal damnation, which cannot, with propriety, be said to be had now; but either of the reproach and scandal cast upon them, and religion, for their wantonness; or the judgment and censure of the church for the same; or having sin, and the guilt of sin upon them, in which sense the word is used, ( Romans 5:16 ) .

Because they have cast off their first faith;
or that faith which they first professed, even the doctrine of faith; which they may be said to cast off, because they walked not according to it, their conversation was not becoming their profession of it; and though they continued to profess the same faith they did in words, yet in works they denied it, or cast it off; for which reason they fell under the notice, judgment, and condemnation of the church, as well as exposed themselves to the reproach of men.

1 Timoteo 5:12 In-Context

10 y que sea reconocida por sus buenas obras, tales como criar hijos, practicar la hospitalidad, lavar los pies de los creyentes, ayudar a los que sufren y aprovechar toda oportunidad para hacer el bien.
11 No incluyas en esa lista a las viudas más jóvenes, porque cuando sus pasiones las alejan de Cristo, les da por casarse.
12 Así resultan culpables de faltar a su primer compromiso.
13 Además se acostumbran a estar ociosas y andar de casa en casa. Y no solo se vuelven holgazanas sino también chismosas y entrometidas, hablando de lo que no deben.
14 Por eso exhorto a las viudas jóvenes a que se casen y tengan hijos, y a que lleven bien su hogar y no den lugar a las críticas del enemigo.
