2 Timotius 1:5-7
Konteks1:5 I recall 1 your sincere faith 2 that was alive first in your grandmother Lois and in your mother Eunice, and I am sure 3 is in you.
1:6 Because of this I remind you to rekindle God’s gift that you possess 4 through the laying on of my hands. 1:7 For God did not give us a Spirit 5 of fear but of power and love and self-control.
[1:5] 1 tn Grk “recalling” (as a continuation of the preceding clause). Because of the length and complexity of the Greek sentence, a new sentence was started here in the translation.
[1:5] 2 tn Grk “the sincere faith in you.”
[1:6] 4 tn Grk “that is in you.”
[1:7] 5 tn Or “a spirit,” denoting the human personality under the Spirit’s influence as in 1 Cor 4:21; Gal 6:1; 1 Pet 3:4. But the reference to the Holy Spirit at the end of this section (1:14) makes it likely that it begins this way also, so that the Holy Spirit is the referent.
