2 Timotius 2:12
Konteks2:12 If we endure, we will also reign with him. 1
If we deny 2 him, 3 he will also deny us.
2 Timotius 4:8
Konteks4:8 Finally the crown of righteousness is reserved for me. The Lord, the righteous Judge, will award it to me in that day – and not to me only, but also to all who have set their affection on 4 his appearing.
[2:12] 1 tn Grk “died together…will live together…will reign together,” without “him” stated explicitly. But “him” is implied by the parallel ideas in Rom 6:8; 8:17 and by the reference to Christ in vv. 12b-13.
[2:12] 2 tn Or “renounce,” “disown,” “repudiate.” It is important to note that the object of Christ’s denial is “us.” The text does not contain an implied object complement (“he will deny us [x]”), which would mean that Christ was withholding something from us (for example, “The owner denied his pets water”), since the verb ἀρνέομαι (arneomai) is not one of the category of verbs that normally occurs in these constructions (see ExSyn 182-89).
[2:12] 3 tn Grk “if we renounce,” but the “him” is implied by the parallel clauses.
