minister of Christ Jesus: See study note on 1Co 3:5.
nourished: Paul uses a Greek word that literally refers to feeding and training a child. “From infancy,” Timothy had figuratively been nourished with “the holy writings.” (2Ti 3:14-17) As a Christian, Timothy was nourished with the words of the faith, or the body of Christian teachings. In this letter, Paul encourages him to continue nourishing himself to build up his own faith. (1Ti 4:16) Timothy, an overseer and a shepherd in the Christian congregation, would thus be able to build up and protect others spiritually.—1Ti 1:3-7, 18; 4:1.
