• Title to pray belongs to "the men" as a whole, not to women; for public prayer is in question. There is no thought of a particular class among the men; yet is the Apostle regulating the house of God. Prayer, then, is not restricted to the elders, even when elders were in full form. It belongs to "the men." (“On 1 Timothy 2:8-10” by W. Kelly)

• Undeniably our Epistle treats of godly order, when it was in all its purity and fullness, when apostles were on earth still, and elders were or might be in every church, and "gift" abounded in every form; yet prayer "in every place" was open. (“On 1 Timothy 2:8-10” by W. Kelly)

• The holiness expressed is that of pious integrity, not of a person set apart. (“On 1 Timothy 2:8-10” by W. Kelly)

• {vss. 8-15} Nothing is to be allowed in the House of God that would mar this testimony either on the part of men or women who form the House. Thus the Apostle proceeds to give detailed instructions as to the deportment of each class. (“The Order of God's House: 1 Timothy 2-3” by H. Smith)

• Praying in public is not confined to elders, or to gifted men, for prayer is never treated in Scripture as a question of gift. It is men that are to pray and the only restriction is that a right moral condition is to be maintained. (“The Order of God's House: 1 Timothy 2-3” by H. Smith)
