“And--Greek, "But." In contrast to the greedy gain-seekers (Ti1 6:5). having--so long as we have food. (The Greek expresses "food sufficient in each case for our continually recurring wants" [ALFORD]). It is implied that we, as believers, shall have this (Isa 23:16). raiment--Greek, "covering"; according to some including a roof to cover us, that is, a dwelling, as well as clothing. let us be therewith content--literally, "we shall be sufficiently provided"; "we shall be sufficed" [ALFORD].”
