When I call to remembrance the unfeigned faith that is in you, which dwelt first in your grandmother Lois, and your mother Eunice; and I am persuaded in you also.
All Commentaries on 2 Timothy 1:5 Go To 2 Timothy 1
John Chrysostom
AD 407
For Timothy, Scripture says, “was the son of a certain woman which was a Jewess, and believed.” How a Jewess? How believing? Because she was not of the Gentiles, “but on account of his father, who was a Greek, and of the Jews that were in those quarters, he took and circumcised him.” Thus, as these mixtures of Jews and Gentiles took place, the law began gradually to be dissolved.
