In the context of Paul's letter to Timothy, this indicates the ultimate objective of Christian teaching and discipleship. The term "instruction" translates from "παραγγελία" (parangelia), meaning a command or charge. This phrase underscores the apostolic mission to guide believers towards a specific spiritual maturity, emphasizing that the teachings of the faith are not merely academic but are intended to transform lives. is the love that comes from a pure heart a clear conscience and a sincere faith Of the commandment.--There is no reference here to the famous commandments of the Law of Moses. "Commandment" may be paraphrased in this place by "practical teaching." With the false teachers' sickly "fables," which only led to disputing, St. Paul contrasts that "healthy practical teaching," the end and aim of which was love, or charity. Charity.--That love, or broad, comprehensive charity, towards men, so nobly described in 1 Corinthians 13. Out of a pure heart, and of a good conscience, and of faith unfeigned.--This broad all-embracing love, or charity, emanates only from "a pure heart:" i.e., a heart free from selfish desires and evil passions. The "pure in heart" alone, said the Lord, in the sermon on the mount (Matthew 5:8), shall enjoy the beatific vision of God. And of a good conscience.--This "charity" must also spring from a conscience unburthened of its load of guilt, from a conscience sprinkled with the precious blood, and so reconciled to God. And of faith unfeigned.--And, lastly, the root of this "charity"--the end and aim of the practical teaching of the gospel preached by the Apostles--must be sought in "a faith unfeigned," in a faith that consists in something more than in a few high-sounding words, which lay claim to a sure confidence that is not felt. The "unfeigned faith" of St. Paul is a faith rich in works rather than in words. Without this faith, so real that its fruits are ever manifest, there can be no good conscience; without this conscience, washed by the precious blood, there can be no pure heart. The error of the teachers of whom Timothy was warned, we see from the next verse, consisted not so much in false doctrines as in an utter neglect of inculcating the necessity of a pure, self-denying life. They preferred curious questions and speculative inquiries to the grave, simple gospel teaching which led men to live an earnest, loving life. Verse 5. - But for now, A.V.; charge for commandment, A.V.; love for charity, A.V.; a good for of a good, and faith for of faith, A.V. But the end of the charge. Before proceeding with his sentence, in which he was about solemnly to commit the trust of the episcopate of the Church of Ephesus to Timothy, he breaks off abruptly to show the beneficent character of the charge, viz. the furtherance of that brotherly love and purity of heart and life which are the true fruit of the gospel dispensation, but which some, by their false doctrine, were so ruthlessly impeding. Each of these phrases, "a pure heart" and "a good conscience" and "faith unfeigned," seems to rebuke by contrast the merely ceremonial cleanness and the defiled conscience and the merely nominal Christianity of these heretical Judaizers (comp. Titus 1:10-16).Parallel Commentaries ... Greek TheΤὸ (To) Article - Nominative Neuter Singular Strong's 3588: The, the definite article.
