ἱεροπρεπεῖς perhaps -- ὃ πρέπει γυναιξὶν ἐπαγγελλομέναις θεοσέβειαν (τ Tim. ii. 10); but in itself the word does not guarantee more than the appearance of reverence. Wetstein gives, among other illustrations, one from Josephus (414. xi. 8, 5), describing how Jaddua, the high priest, went out in procession from Jeru- salem to mect Alexander the Great, ἱεροπρεπῆ Kat διαφέρουσαν τῶν ἄλλων ἐθνῶν ποιούμενος τὴν ὑπάντησιν.

μὴ διαβόλους : See on x Tim. iii. 11, and 2 Tim. ili. 3.

δεδουλωμένας: The A.V., not given to much wine, makes no difference be- tween this and προσέχοντας, which is the verb in the corresponding phrase, in the list of moral qualifications of deacons, 1 Tim. iii. 8. Itis proved by ex- perience that the reclamation of a woman drunkard is almost impossible. The best parallel to this use of δουλόω is 2 Pet. ii. 19, ᾧ γάρ τις ἥττηται, τούτῳ δεδούλωται. Cf. also the other reff.

καλοδιδασκάλους: Not only “by dis- course at home,” as Chrys. explains, but by example.

Ver. 4. σωφρονίζουσιν. The only other examples of ἵνα with a pres. indic.
