 It is not the official elder who is here in view but any brother advanced in years. Of course the exhortation would apply if possible more to an elder in the official sense. (On 1 Timothy 5:1-8 by W. Kelly)
 The Apostle speaks of elders; of widows, of that which is becoming for younger widows; of the honor due to faithful elders, those among them especially who were teachers also. There is nothing inward, nothing of the soul’s relationships to God; but everything refers to the public testimony which suited the position of men in this world before God. (1 Timothy 5 by J.N. Darby)
 {vss. 1-2} In administering rebuke we are to recognize what is due to age and sex, and thus be careful that the rebuke is given in a right spirit. The rebuke may be right and yet have no effect, or even do harm, because of the wrong spirit in which it is given. (Warnings Against Worldliness and Instruction in Piety: 1 Timothy 5 by H. Smith)
