PAUL here showeth his Apostolical care and fervent zeal which he beareth to the church: so that in disputing and confuting he intermixeth sometimes gentle exhortations, and sometimes he sharply chideth, according to his own rule given to Timothy. Preach (saith he) the word: ⟨image 95⟩be instant in season and out of season: ¹Improve, rebuke, exhort. 2. Timot. 4. Here the simple reader haply may be deceived, if he be not circumspect,² to think that Paul in teaching keepeth no order at all. And surely after the manner of the Rhetoricians he observeth none: but as concerning the spirit he useth a goodly order.
