⁵I left you on the island of Crete so you could complete our work there and appoint elders in each town as I instructed you. ⁶An elder must live a blameless life. He must be faithful to his wife,#1:6 Or must have only one wife, or must be married only once; Greek reads must be the husband of one wife. and his children must be believers who don’t have a reputation for being wild or rebellious.
