Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Y para conocer la templanza - Sobre el significado de la palabra "templanza", vea la nota Hechos 24:25 y 1 Corintios 9:25 nota. La palabra aquí se refiere al dominio sobre todas nuestras inclinaciones y apetitos malvados. No debemos permitir que ninguno de ellos obtenga control sobre nosotros. Vea las notas en 1 Corintios 6:12. Esto incluiría, por supuesto, la abstinencia de bebidas embriagantes; pero también abarcaría todas las malas pasiones y propensiones. Todo debe ser confinado dentro de los límites apropiados, y sin ninguna propensión de nuestra naturaleza debemos dar indulgencia más allá de los límites que permite la ley de Dios.

Y a la paciencia de la templanza - Notas, Santiago 1:4.

Y para tener paciencia con la piedad - Verdadera piedad. Notas, 2 Pedro 1:3. Compare 1 Timoteo 2:2; 1 Timoteo 3:16; 1 Timoteo 4:7; 1 Timoteo 6:3, 1 Timoteo 6:5, 1 Timoteo 6:11.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Versículo 6. Templanza.  Un uso apropiado y limitado de todos los placeres terrenales, manteniendo todos los sentidos bajo las debidas restricciones, y nunca permitiendo que la parte animal subyugue a la racional.

Paciencia.  Soportando todas las pruebas y dificultades con una mente tranquila, perseverando en todo, y perseverando a través de todo.

Piedad.  Piedad hacia Dios; un miedo profundo, reverencial y religioso; no sólo adorar a Dios con cada acto exterior propio, sino adorarlo, amarlo y magnificarlo en el corazón: una disposición indispensablemente necesaria para la salvación, pero sumamente rara entre los profesantes.
