1 Timothy 5:2
The elder women as mothers ( πρεσβυτερας ως μητερας ). Anarthrous again, "older women as mothers." Respect and reverence once more.The younger as sisters, in all purity ( νεωτερας ως αδελφας εν παση αγνια ). Anarthrous also and comparative form as in verse 1. See 4:12 for αγνια. No sort of behavior will so easily make or mar the young preacher as his conduct with young women.
