"The Bible, Douay-Rheims, Book 61: 1 Timothy" is a pastoral epistle traditionally attributed to the Apostle Paul, though most modern scholars date it to the late first or early second century. This letter addresses Timothy, Paul's younger colleague ministering in Ephesus, offering guidance on church organization, leadership responsibilities, and maintaining doctrinal truth amid false teachings. The epistle provides instructions for how communities should structure themselves and warns against misuse of religious law, targeting various transgressors and theological errors threatening the early Christian movement.
