Study Note
'That the man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work' — the verse concludes the famous passage on Scripture's inspiration (verse 16) by specifying its practical telos: not theoretical knowledge but practical completeness for every good work. The word 'complete' (artios) is a hapax legomenon in the New Testament, suggesting fitness for purpose or full equipping, complemented by 'thoroughly equipped' (exartismenos, intensive form). The phrase 'every good work' (pan ergon agathon) echoes Titus 3:1; 2 Corinthians 9:8, and Ephesians 2:10, where the same phrase describes the ultimate goal of salvation: a community characterized by comprehensive ethical and practical faithfulness. Together with verse 16, this verse establishes that Scripture's inspiration is not merely an academic datum but an empowering dynamic — it equips communities for the life God intends.
