On this verse

Draft selections — awaiting the founder’s edit.

Here he is described by his relation and office: A servant of God, not in the general sense only, as a man and a Christian, but especially as a minister, serving God in the gospel of his Son, Rom. i. This is a high honour; it is the glory of angels that they are ministering spirits, and sent forth to minister for those who shall be heirs of salvation, Heb. i.

Matthew Henry· Commentary on the Whole Bible, 1710puritan

The immorality of the Cretan professors rendered this a necessary requisite in one who was to be a reprover: and their unsoundness in doctrine also made needful great steadfastness in the faith (Tit 1:9, 13). having faithful children--that is, believing children. He who could not bring his children to faith, how shall he bring others? [BENGEL].
