Overview

2 Timothy offers a fresh approach to the letter through the use of an innovative chiastic outline. Interacting with the most insightful voices from the past and present, this commentary reflects on the “aftermath” of 1 Timothy, pondering the question of endurance in the face of apostasy: What do you do when you lose after having done everything possible to pursue righteousness? The apostle answers this question from a uniquely personal and richly theological perspective, offering wisdom equally applicable to all today that aspire to live a godly life in Christ Jesus.

Praise for 2 Timothy

In the line of Jeon’s previous keen analyses of Titus and 1 Timothy, his astute treatment of 2 Timothy offers an entirely new structure of the letter as a key to its interpretation. His text-centered, literary-rhetorical, and audience-oriented approach deserves the attention of all scholars of and anyone else interested in the Pauline letters.

——John Paul Heil, Professor of New Testament, Catholic University of America

Paul Jeon is a consummate pastor/scholar. As a scholar he can unpack Paul’s writing and help us understand all its theological richness, and as church planter and pastor he has lived the pastoral life that Timothy reflects. Combine the two, and you have a rich resource to help Paul’s Second Letter to Timothy come alive for us today.

——William Fullilove, Associate Professor of Old Testament, Dean of Students, Reformed Theological Seminary
