• The glad tidings may not assert man's condemnation which is assumed in the strongest way. It is occupied with good for the worst of sinners, for it is the message of grace from the God who was glorified in the Son of Man and has now glorified Him in Himself, before the kingdom comes wherein He will display His power and glory to every eye. (“On 1 Timothy 1:5-11” by W. Kelly)
• "The gospel of the glory." Such is the hope in which we rejoice, and such the standard by which He would have us measure and reject all evil: a standard therefore which suffers no compromise in view of man's hardness of heart, as the law did, but is absolutely intolerant of all that is antagonistic to God's nature and presence on high. And God is now revealed as "the blessed God," because He speaks to us, not in Sinai's fire and darkness and tempest and words yet more awful, but in the fullness of grace and truth of Him who declared Him on earth and is now set down in the heavenly places where we who believe are blessed with every spiritual blessing in Him. (“On 1 Timothy 1:5-11” by W. Kelly)
• The gospel which is connected with the glory of God Himself which this gospel proclaims, as the law is connected with the wickedness which it condemns. (“1 Timothy 1” by J.N. Darby)
• The glad tidings of the glory of God, in the blessing that is proclaimed to man, far surpasses any good that the law could accomplish. For the gospel, entrusted to the Apostle, reveals the grace of God that can bless the chief of sinners. (“The Charge and Its End: 1 Timothy 1” by H. Smith)

J. N. Darby Translation

11
according to the glad tidings of the glory of the blessed God, with which *I* have been entrusted.

W. Kelly Translation

+
11
according to the gospel of the glorya of the blessed God with which I was entrustedb.

WK Translation Notes

+
a
It is the gospel of God’s glory, not the "glorious gospel," The glory of God into which Christ has entered is the true and full standard of judgment by which the apostle, who had beyond any other beheld it, measures that which is unsuitable for God and His own.
b
As in {vi 29089}{/vi} he says it was and is, the abiding state, and not the fact only which here sufficed. The KJV alone of English versions is accurate in this.
