Study Note
'And the grace of our Lord was exceeding abundant with faith and love which is in Christ Jesus' — the 'exceeding abundant' (hyperepleonasen — a hapax legomenon: 'super-abounded') in response to Paul's 'chief of sinners' self-description (verse 15) applies the grace-greater-than-sin principle of Romans 5:20 ('where sin abounded, grace did much more abound') to Paul's own biography as a former persecutor. The pairing of faith and love as the experiential content of grace-in-Christ-Jesus reflects the twin virtues that 1 Timothy consistently promotes as the pattern of genuinely transformed apostolic character. The verse makes Paul himself the primary exhibit of the gospel's power, grounding the epistle's ethical instruction in the speaker's own experience of radical divine mercy.
