1 Corinthians - 16:10 Meaning

“Now if Timotheus come, see that he may be with you without fear: for he worketh the work of the Lord, as I also do.”

King James Version (KJV)

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary

16:10-12 Timothy came to do the work of the Lord. Therefore to vex his spirit, would be to grieve the Holy Spirit; to despise him, would be to despise Him that sent him. Those who work the work of the Lord, should be treated with tenderness and respect. Faithful ministers will not be jealous of each other. It becomes the ministers of the gospel to show concern for each other's reputation and usefulness.

“The LORD is my strength and song, and is become my salvation.”
