1Tim 6:14 · Douay-Rheims
“That thou keep the commandment without spot, blameless, unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ,”
On this verse:
“That thou keep the commandment. Some understand that of fighting manfully; others of loving God; others rather comprehend all that St. Paul had commanded him, and all the instructions given. — Unto the coming of our Lord; [9] which coming, he in due time will shew. This is the construction by the Greek. (Witham) — This coming will be desirable for Christians who have preserved or recovered their baptismal innocence, and for pastors who have faithfully fulfilled their ministry; but terrible, in the extreme, for all who have lived in the constant neglect and omission of their duties.”
