1 Timothy 6:3
Teacheth a different doctrine ( ετεροδιδασκαλε ). See 1:3 for this verb, present active indicative here in condition of first class.Consenteth not ( μη προσερχετα ). Also condition of first class with μη instead of ου. Προσερχομα (old verb, to come to, to approach, with dative) is common enough in N.T. (Heb 4:16; 7:25, etc.), but in the metaphorical sense of coming to one's ideas, assenting to, here only in N.T., but is so used in Philo and Irenaeus (Ellicott).
Sound words ( υγιαινουσιν λογοις ). See 1:10 for υγιαινω.
The words of our Lord Jesus Christ ( τοις του κυριου ημων Ιησου Χριστου ). Either subjective genitive (the words from the Lord Jesus, a collection of his sayings in Lock's opinion like 5:18; Ac 20:35, at least in the Spirit of Jesus as Ac 16:7; 1Co 11:23) or objective genitive about Jesus like 2Ti 1:8; 1Co 1:18.
According to godliness ( κατα ευσεβειαν ). Promoting (designed for) godliness as in Tit 1:1.
