2 Timothy 01 General Notes
Special concepts in this chapter
Spiritual children
Paul calls Timothy his "son." Paul was very involved in discipling Timothy. Because of this relationship, he called him his "spiritual" son. (See: rc://en/tw/dict/bible/kt/disciple and rc://en/tw/dict/bible/kt/spirit)
Other possible translation difficulties in this chapter
Persecution
Both Paul and Timothy were suffering persecution when this letter was written. Paul takes the time to encourage Timothy in the midst of these difficulties. (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-explicit)
