1 Timothy 5:20

Context
5:20 Those guilty of sin 1  must be rebuked 2  before all, 3  as a warning to the rest. 4 

1 sn As a continuation of v. 19, this refers to elders who sin, not to sinning believers more generally.

2 tn Or “censured.” The Greek word implies exposing someone’s sin in order to bring correction.

3 tn “Before all” probably refers to the whole congregation, not just all the elders; “the rest” is more likely to denote the remaining elders.

4 tn Grk “that the rest may have fear.”
