  • 1 Timothy Study Notes—Chapter 1
    New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures (Study Edition)
    • 1:9

      law is made, not for a righteous man: Those who embraced Christianity were righteous in that they adopted God’s standards of right and wrong. They willingly yielded to the influence of God’s spirit. (Ga 5:16-23) Thus, they did not need many detailed laws, such as those found in the Mosaic Law. Instead, Christians followed the superior “law of the Christ,” which is based on love.​—Ga 6:2 and study note.
