Discovery Box1 Timothy 6:15-17 
Context6:15 – whose appearing 1 the blessed and only Sovereign, the King of kings and Lord of lords, will reveal at the right time. 6:16 He alone possesses immortality and lives in unapproachable light, whom no human has ever seen or is able to see. To him be honor and eternal power! Amen.
6:17 Command those who are rich in this world’s goods 2 not to be haughty or to set their hope on riches, which are uncertain, 3 but on God who richly provides us with all things for our enjoyment.
1 tn Grk “which.” All of 1 Tim 6:15 is a relative clause which refers back to “appearing” in v.14. The phrase “whose appearing” was supplied to clarify this connection.
2 tn Grk “in the present age.”
3 tn Grk “in uncertainty.”
