13 Bring G4311 Zenas G2211 the lawyer G3544 and G2532 Apollos G625 on their journey G4311 diligently, G4709 that G2443 nothing G3367 be wanting G3007 unto them. G846
And G1161 a certain G5100 Jew G2453 named G3686 Apollos, G625 born G1085 at Alexandria, G221 an eloquent G3052 man, G435 and mighty G5607 G1415 in G1722 the scriptures, G1124 came G2658 to G1519 Ephesus. G2181
And, G2532 behold, G2400 a certain G5100 lawyer G3544 stood up, G450 and G2532 tempted G1598 him, G846 saying, G3004 Master, G1320 what G5101 shall I do G4160 to inherit G2816 eternal G166 life? G2222
And G2532 Jesus G2424 answering G611 spake G2036 unto G4314 the lawyers G3544 and G2532 Pharisees, G5330 saying, G3004 Is it G1487 lawful G1832 to heal G2323 on the sabbath day? G4521
And G1161 when G3753 we G2248 had G1096 accomplished G1822 those days, G2250 we departed G1831 and went our way; G4198 and they all G3956 brought G4311 us G2248 on our way, G4311 with G4862 wives G1135 and G2532 children, G5043 till G2193 we were out of G1854 the city: G4172 and G2532 we kneeled down G5087 G1119 on G1909 the shore, G123 and prayed. G4336
Whensoever G5613 G1437 I take my journey G4198 into G1519 Spain, G4681 I will come G2064 to G4314 you: G5209 for G1063 I trust G1679 to see G2300 you G5209 in my journey, G1279 and G2532 to be brought on my way G4311 thitherward G1563 by G5259 you, G5216 if G1437 first G4412 I be G1705 somewhat G3313 filled G1705 with G575 your G5216 company.
Let G1848 no G3361 man G5100 therefore G3767 despise G1848 him: G846 but G1161 conduct G4311 him G846 forth G4311 in G1722 peace, G1515 that G2443 he may come G2064 unto G4314 me: G3165 for G1063 I look for G1551 him G846 with G3326 the brethren. G80
Which G3739 have borne witness G3140 of thy G4675 charity G26 before G1799 the church: G1577 whom G3739 if thou bring forward on their journey G4311 after G516 a godly G2316 sort, G516 thou shalt do G4160 well: G2573 Because that G1063 for G5228 his G846 name's G3686 sake G5228 they went forth, G1831 taking G2983 nothing G3367 of G575 the Gentiles. G1484 We G2249 therefore G3767 ought G3784 to receive G618 such, G5108 that G2443 we might be G1096 fellowhelpers G4904 to the truth. G225

Commentary on Titus 3 Matthew Henry Commentary
Chapter 3
Of duties which concern Christians more in common, and the reasons of them (v. 1-8). What Titus in teaching should avoid, and how he should deal with a heretic, with some other directions (v. 9-14), and salutations in the close (v. 15).
Tts 3:1-8
Here is the fourth thing in the matter of the epistle. The apostle had directed Titus in reference to the particular and special duties of several sorts of persons; now he bids him exhort to what concerned them more in common, namely, to quietness and submission to rulers, and readiness to do good, and to equitable and gentle behaviour towards all men-things comely and ornamental of religion; he must therefore put them in mind of such things. Ministers are people's remembrancers of their duty. As they are remembrancers for the people to God in prayers (Isa. 62:6), so are they from God to them in preaching: I will not be negligent to put you always in remembrance, 2 Pt. 1:12. Forgetfulness of duty is a common frailty; there is need therefore of reminding and quickening them thereto. Here are the duties themselves, and the reasons of them.
Tts 3:9-15
Here is the fifth and last thing in the matter of the epistle: what Titus should avoid in teaching; how he should deal with a heretic; with some other directions. Observe,
