translationNotes

  • The hardworking farmer must receive his share of the crops first - This is the third metaphor that Paul gives Timothy. The reader should understand that Christ's servants need to work hard. (See: en:ta:vol1:translate:figs_metaphor)
  • Think about what I am saying - Paul gave Timothy three metaphors, but he did not explain their meanings. He expected Timothy to figure out what Paul was saying about Christ's servants.
  • for the Lord - "because the Lord"
