1 Tim. 5:2      1 Tim. 5:4

First letter to Timothy 5:3

[Throughout the Bible, God's care for widows and orphans is evident. The church should take care of them, see Deut. 10:18; 14:29; 24:17–21. Already in the church in Jerusalem, help for widows was organized, see Acts 6:1–7. Now, thirty years later, this aid took up a large part of the congregation's activities, and Paul is careful to identify those who really need help.]
Honor (value, give financial support to) widows, those who are truly widows.
[The word honor is used only once more by Paul. There it is a direct quotation of the commandment to honor one's father and mother, see Eph. 6:2. The word echoes the exhortations concerning widows found in the Old Testament, see Ex. 22:22; Deut. 24:17.]
