 First and foremost they are “profitable” for teaching, being, as we have seen, the revelation of God’s mind for His people; also for “reproof,” or conviction, for, inasmuch as they are the divine standard, the character of our conduct or actions is at once discerned by their application; for “correction,” since they not only convict of sin and failure, but they also point out the right path for God’s people; for “instruction in righteousness,” because they contain precepts and exhortations applicable to all the relationships and responsibilities, whether toward God, one another, or toward men in general. (Exposition of 2 Timothy: 2 Timothy 3:10-17 by E. Dennett)
 The important thing to observe here is that the Apostle is speaking of the Scriptures, as they are in themselves, such as a child reads them; not even of that which a converted or spiritual man finds in them, but simply the holy writings themselves. (2 Timothy 3 by J.N. Darby)
 We are always most courageous in the presence of difficulties or enemies when in the personal enjoyment of salvation, and on this account the two things are here combined. (Compare John 20:21; Eph. 6:17) (article #86523)
