| Geneva Study Bible The Lord Jesus Christ be with thy spirit. Grace be with you. Amen. People's New Testament 4:22 The second epistle unto Timotheus. Shortly after this Epistle was written, within a few months at most, Paul had his second hearing, was sentenced to death by execution, was led out of the city at the Ostian Gate to a place called the Three Fountains, and there was beheaded. At least all early tradition, and the Fathers, among them Clement, one of his companions, support this view. Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Bible Commentary 22. Grace be with you-plural in oldest manuscripts, "with YOU," that is, thee and the members of the Ephesian and neighboring churches. Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary 4:19-22 We need no more to make us happy, than to have the Lord Jesus Christ with our spirits; for in him all spiritual blessings are summed up. It is the best prayer we can offer for our friends, that the Lord Jesus Christ may be with their spirits, to sanctify and save them, and at last to receive them to himself. Many who believed as Paul, are now before the throne, giving glory to their Lord: may we be followers of them. |
