1 Timothy 01 General Notes

Special concepts in this chapter

Spiritual children

Paul calls Timothy his "son." Paul was very involved in discipling Timothy in his faith. Therefore, he called him his "spiritual" son. (See: rc://en/tw/dict/bible/kt/disciple, rc://en/tw/dict/bible/kt/faith, rc://en/tw/dict/bible/kt/spirit and rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor)

Genealogies

This is probably a reference to some people's speculation about who the Messiah was. (See: rc://en/tw/dict/bible/kt/christ)

Important figures of speech in this chapter

Play on words

The phrase "the law is good if one uses it lawfully" is a pun or play on words. "Law" and "lawfully" sound similar.
