Audio: Reina-Valera Antigua (RVA), read by Joyfull · Tito 1–3 · About the recordings

1 Recuérdales que se sujeten a los gobernantes y autoridades, que obedezcan y estén listos para toda buena obra. 2 Que no hablen mal de nadie, que no sean peleadores, sino amables, mostrando toda mansedumbre hacia todos los hombres. 3 Porque nosotros también antes éramos necios, desobedientes, extraviados, esclavos de diversos malos deseos y placeres. Vivíamos en malicia y envidia, siendo aborrecibles y odiándonos unos a otros. 4 Pero cuando se manifestó la bondad de Dios nuestro Salvador y su amor por los hombres, 5 él nos salvó, no por obras de justicia que nosotros hubiéramos hecho, sino por su misericordia, mediante el lavamiento del nuevo nacimiento y la renovación por el Espíritu Santo. 6 Dios derramó abundantemente el Espíritu Santo sobre nosotros por medio de Jesucristo nuestro Salvador, 7 para que, justificados por su gracia, llegáramos a ser herederos conforme a la esperanza de la vida eterna. 8 Fiel es esta palabra. Quiero que insistas en estas cosas, para que los que han creído en Dios procuren ocuparse en buenas obras. Estas cosas son buenas y útiles para los hombres. 9 Pero evita las discusiones necias, las genealogías, las contiendas y los pleitos acerca de la Ley, porque son inútiles y no aprovechan. 10 Al hombre divisivo, después de una y otra amonestación, apártalo de ti. 11 Sabiendo que tal persona está pervertida y peca, y se condena a sí misma. 12 Cuando te envíe a Artemas o a Tíquico, procura venir a verme en Nicópolis, porque he decidido pasar allí el invierno. 13 Ayuda con diligencia a Zenas, el intérprete de la Ley, y a Apolos en su viaje, para que no les falte nada. 14 Que los nuestros aprendan también a ocuparse en buenas obras para cubrir las necesidades urgentes, a fin de que no sean sin fruto. 15 Todos los que están conmigo te saludan. Saluda a los que nos aman en la fe. La gracia sea con todos ustedes. Amén.

What the Fathers said

Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).

How these were chosen

“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).

  1. Commentary 3:8 John Chrysostom, Homilies on Titus (Homily VI)

    Having spoken of the love of God to man, of His ineffable regard for us, of what we were and what He has done for us, he has added, "These things I will that thou affirm constantly, that they which have believed in God might be careful to maintain good works"; that is, Discourse of these things, and from a …

  2. Quotes verse 3:1 Clement of Rome, First Epistle to the Corinthians (Chapters I–VI)

    Ye never grudged any act of kindness, being "ready to every good work." Adorned by a thoroughly virtuous and religious life, ye did all things in the fear of God.

  3. Quotes verse 3:10 Irenaeus of Lyons, Against Heresies (Book I, Chapters XVI–XVII)

    But as many as separate from the Church, and give heed to such old wives' fables as these, are truly self-condemned; and these men Paul commands us, "after a first and second admonition, to avoid." And John, the disciple of the Lord, has intensified their condemnation, when he desires us not even to address to them the salutation of "good-speed;" …

  4. Quotes verse 3:5 Augustine of Hippo, Tractates on the Gospel of John (Chapters XV–XV)

    … "Now I know in part, but then shall I know, even as also I am known; and now through a glass in a riddle, but then face to face." For the same apostle also says that we have been saved by the washing of regeneration, and yet declares in another place, "We are saved by hope: but hope that is …

  5. Quotes verse 3:10 John Chrysostom, Homilies on the Gospel of Matthew (Homily XXIII)

    Therefore Paul also said to Timothy, "Of whom be thou ware also; for he hath greatly withstood our words;" and again in another place, "From such turn away," and, "A man that is an heretic, after the first and second admonition, reject." It is not, you see, that those truths furnish them with armor, but they become fools in this …
