2 Timothy 1:12
Context1:12 Because of this, in fact, I suffer as I do. 1 But I am not ashamed, because I know the one in whom my faith is set 2 and I am convinced that he is able to protect what has been entrusted to me 3 until that day. 4
2 Timothy 1:18
Context1:18 May the Lord grant him to find mercy from the Lord on that day! 5 And you know very well all the ways he served me in Ephesus. 6
1 tn Grk “suffer these things.”
2 tn Or “in whom I have believed.”
3 sn What has been entrusted to me (Grk “my entrustment,” meaning either (1) “what I have entrusted to him” [his life, destiny, etc.] or (2) “what he has entrusted to me” [the truth of the gospel]). The parallel with v. 14 and use of similar words in the pastorals (1 Tim 6:20; 2 Tim 2:2) argue for the latter sense.
4 sn That day is a reference to the day when Paul would stand before Christ to give account for his service (cf. 2 Tim 1:18; 1 Cor 3:13; 2 Cor 5:9-10).
5 sn That day is a reference to the day when Onesiphorus (v. 16) stands before Christ to give account for his service (cf. v. 12; 1 Cor 3:13; 2 Cor 5:9-10).
6 tn Grk “all the ways he served in Ephesus.”
