The verses around Titus 2:13.
11For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men,
12Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world;
13Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ;
14Who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify unto himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works.
15These things speak, and exhort, and rebuke with all authority. Let no man despise thee.
Verse explanation
The Greek grammar of this verse is debated among translators: it may be describing God and Jesus Christ as two distinct figures, or it may be calling Jesus Christ directly ‘the great God’ — scholars are divided on the more accurate reading. Either way, the verse describes a future hope tied to the return of Christ.
From the Titus 2 study in Bible in Stories.
