LOIS. The grandmother of Timothy ( 2 Timothy 1:5 ), and probably the mother of Eunice, Timothy’s mother. The name is Greek. The family lived at Lystra ( Acts 16:1 ), where St. Paul first made their acquaintance. Lois was a devout Jewess by conviction, who instructed her family diligently in the Holy Scriptures.
