1 Timothy 3:3
Douay-Rheims
Not given to wine, no striker, but modest, not quarrelsome, not covetous, but
George Leo Haydock
Not given to wine, or a lover of wine. This, says St. Chrysostom, is less than to be a drunkard; for such are excluded from the kingdom of heaven, whoever they be. (1 Corinthians vi. 10.) — No striker. St. Chrysostom understands not striving, fighting or quarreling even with his tongue. — Not covetous [4] of money, as appears by the Greek text. (Witham)
