Adam Clarke, on 1Tim 6:8

“But having food, and wherewith to be covered, with these we are content.”

“Having food and raiment, let us be therewith content - Αρκεσθησομεθα· Let us consider this a competency. And it is evident that the apostle considers this a competency, and by these words explains what he said Ti1 6:6. The word ακεπασματα, which we translate raiment, signifies covering in general; and here means house or lodging, as well as clothing.”
