Commentary

Commentary on 2 Timothy 4:14

Theological / Devotional

Alexander. A very common name, hence, the person here may not be the Alexander of Asia Minor who had been disfellowshipped some years before. Probably the man mentioned in this verse was a citizen of Rome who falsely accused Paul before the Roman court, thus precipitating his second imprisonment (see v. 15).

Coppersmith. A general title for a metal-worker of any kind.

Reward. Gr. apodidomi, “to requite,” “to pay back.” Compare v. 8.
