Titus Study Notes—Chapter 3New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures (Study Edition)

a man who promotes a sect: Or “a person causing division.”—See Glossary, “Sect,” and study notes on Ac 24:5; 1Co 11:19.
reject him: Or “have nothing to do with him.” The Greek verb Paul here uses could include the idea of excluding or sending someone away, for example, from a house. If a person in the congregation began promoting a sect, the elders would lovingly try to help him. But if after being admonished he persisted in his course, the elders were to “reject him,” apparently meaning that they should remove him from the congregation. (Ro 16:17; 1Co 5:12, 13; 1Ti 1:20; 2Jo 10) Otherwise, he would sow discord and divisions.—2Ti 2:16-18.
admonition: The Greek word Paul here uses can refer to instruction and guidance. (See study note on Eph 6:4.) In this context, it conveys the idea of “warning.”—Compare 1Th 5:14 and study note.
