1 Timothy 4:14

Context
4:14 Do not neglect the spiritual gift you have, 1  given to you and confirmed by prophetic words 2  when the elders laid hands on you. 3 

1 tn Grk “in you.”

2 tn Grk “which was given to you through prophecy.” Here as in 2:15 the preposition “through” denotes not “means” but accompanying circumstances: “accompanied by prophecy.”

sn These prophetic words perhaps spoke of what God would do through Timothy in his ministry (cf. 1 Tim 1:18).

3 tn Grk “with the imposition of the hands of the presbytery” (i.e., the council of elders).
