1 Timothy · Chapter 6

1 Timothy 6:10

1Let as many servants as are under the yoke count their own masters worthy of all honour, that the name of God and his doctrine be not blasphemed.2And they that have believing masters, let them not despise them, because they are brethren; but rather do them service, because they are faithful and beloved, partakers of the benefit. These things teach and exhort.3If any man teach otherwise, and consent not to wholesome words, even the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the doctrine which is according to godliness;4He is proud, knowing nothing, but doting about questions and strifes of words, whereof cometh envy, strife, railings, evil surmisings,5Perverse disputings of men of corrupt minds, and destitute of the truth, supposing that gain is godliness: from such withdraw thyself.6But godliness with contentment is great gain.7For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out.8And having food and raiment let us be therewith content.9But they that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in destruction and perdition.10For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.11But thou, O man of God, flee these things; and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness.12Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses.13I give thee charge in the sight of God, who quickeneth all things, and before Christ Jesus, who before Pontius Pilate witnessed a good confession;14That thou keep this commandment without spot, unrebukeable, until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ:15Which in his times he shall shew, who is the blessed and only Potentate, the King of kings, and Lord of lords;16Who only hath immortality, dwelling in the light which no man can approach unto; whom no man hath seen, nor can see: to whom be honour and power everlasting. Amen.17Charge them that are rich in this world, that they be not highminded, nor trust in uncertain riches, but in the living God, who giveth us richly all things to enjoy;18That they do good, that they be rich in good works, ready to distribute, willing to communicate;19Laying up in store for themselves a good foundation against the time to come, that they may lay hold on eternal life.20O Timothy, keep that which is committed to thy trust, avoiding profane and vain babblings, and oppositions of science falsely so called:21Which some professing have erred concerning the faith. Grace be with thee. Amen.

In context

AI-assisted, sourced

Paul is warning about false teachers who think 'gain is godliness' (6:5). He answers that godliness with contentment is the real gain (6:6-8). Those set on getting rich fall into traps (6:9), and this verse explains why: the love of money leads to every kind of evil and has pulled some away from the faith. 1 Timothy 6:51 Timothy 6:61 Timothy 6:71 Timothy 6:81 Timothy 6:91 Timothy 6:10

Commonly taken out of context

How it’s often usedOften quoted as 'Money is the root of all evil,' as if money itself were evil, or as if greed were the single cause behind every sin.

In contextThe verse speaks of the love of money, not money, and the context lets the rich keep their wealth if they use it well (6:17-18). The Greek reads more like 'a root of all kinds of evils.' It names one deep source of many evils, not the only cause of all evil. 1 Timothy 6:10Strong's G5365Strong's G4491Strong's G39561 Timothy 6:171 Timothy 6:18

SpeakingPaul the apostle, who names himself as the writer of the letter. Many critical scholars think a follower wrote in his name, while others defend Paul's authorship. 1 Timothy overview

ToTimothy, Paul's younger co-worker, whom Paul had left to lead the church at Ephesus. 1 Timothy overview

Also involvedThe 'some' who reached after money and wandered from the faith. The context points to teachers who treat godliness as a way to make money, and to anyone who is set on being rich. 1 Timothy 6:51 Timothy 6:91 Timothy 6:10

The verse gives the reason behind the warning in 6:9. Craving money is a root from which all kinds of evils grow. Some who reached after it were led astray from the faith and caused themselves great pain. 1 Timothy 6:91 Timothy 6:10Strong's G1063Strong's G4491Strong's G3956

The eventsThis happens while Timothy is leading the church in Ephesus and facing false teaching from inside the church. 1 Timothy overview

WrittenTraditional view: about AD 62-64, between Paul's two Roman imprisonments. Scholarly view: many critical scholars date it around AD 80-110. 1 Timothy overview

HerePaul wants to expose the false teachers' motive of gain. He also wants to steer Timothy away from it: 'flee these things; and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith' (6:11). 1 Timothy 6:51 Timothy 6:111 Timothy overview

In the whole of ScriptureA main theme of the letter is that sound teaching and godly living belong together. Contentment and the danger of the love of money are named as key themes. Paul does not condemn wealth itself. He tells the rich to trust God, not 'uncertain riches', and to be generous (6:17-18). 1 Timothy overview1 Timothy 6:171 Timothy 6:18

For readersThe danger is the craving for money, not money itself. Contentment with food and clothing, and generosity with what one has, are the remedy Paul offers. 1 Timothy 6:81 Timothy 6:101 Timothy 6:171 Timothy 6:18

  • love of moneyφιλαργυρία
    Greek · philarguria · G5365

    This is a single word meaning love of money or greed. The problem named is the desire, not the coins. Strong's G5365

  • rootῥίζα
    Greek · rhiza · G4491

    The word is used here as a picture of a source or origin. It describes where evils grow from, not a claim that it is the only source. Strong's G4491

  • Greek · pas · G3956

    Here it means 'of all kinds.' The point is that many different evils can grow from greed, not that every evil does. Strong's G3956

  • Greek · oregō · G3713

    The word means to reach or stretch out for something. It pictures people actively grasping at money. Strong's G3713

  • piercedπεριπείρω
    Greek · peripeirō · G4044

    This verb comes from putting something on a spit. It is a vivid image of people wounding themselves with their own pursuit of wealth. Strong's G4044Strong's G3601

Takeaway

The verse warns against craving money, not against having it. Greed can feed many kinds of evil, draw people away from faith, and bring self-inflicted grief. Paul's answer is contentment and generosity. 1 Timothy 6:61 Timothy 6:101 Timothy 6:18Strong's G5365

    To end rumours that he had started the fire, Nero blamed the Christians of Rome. Tacitus records a "vast multitude" put to death, some torn by dogs and some burned as torches. Tacitus, Annals 15.44Suetonius, Nero 16.2

  12. AD 65
    RulersA plot against Nero fails

  15. c. AD 67
    The churchPaul's death in Rome
