Titus 2:14

"looking for the blessed hope and appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ,"

Key Reflection

This verse speaks of believers eagerly anticipating the return of Jesus Christ, seeing it as a source of joy and a fulfillment of their hope. It highlights the dual aspect of Christ’s glory—both his present saving work and his future visible return, which will bring ultimate redemption and blessing to all who trust in him.

From the Scholars: Barnes' Notes

Verse 14. Who gave himself for us. See Barnes "Eph 5:2". That he might redeem us from all iniquity. The word here rendered redeem lutrow, occurs only here and in Lu 24:21; 1 Pe 1:18. The noun, however-- lutron, lutron, occurs in Mt 20:28, and Mr 10:45, where it is rendered ransom. See it explained See Barnes "Mt 20:28". It is here said that the object of his giving himself was to save his people from all iniquity. See this explained See Barnes "Mt 1:21". And purify unto himself. (1.) Purify them, or make them holy. This is the first and leading object. See Barnes "Heb 9:14".
