Titus 2

Sound in verse 1 is from the word hugiaino^[1] means whole and healthy or wholesome. So sound doctrine includes teachings for the living^[2] so that they may be whole and healthy in the world at hand.
The same instruction is found in Timothy and Titus 1^[3]
The Greek word for aged men is presbutes ^[4] from presbuteros^[5] normally translated elder. All these characteristics are about members of families which must remain whole and healthy.
Think about the phrase "a pattern of good works". Pattern is from a Greek word tupos meaning " the mark of a stroke or blow".^[6]
In verse 15 the word authority is from epitage^[7] meaning an "an injunction, mandate, command" from epitasso "to enjoin upon, order, command, charge." It is a term normally reserved for the commandments of God^[8]
Questions

1 ¶ But speak thou the things which become sound doctrine:

2 That the aged men be sober, grave, temperate, sound in faith, in charity, in patience.

3 The aged women likewise, that they be in behaviour as becometh holiness, not false accusers, not given to much wine, teachers of good things;

4 That they may teach the young women to be sober, to love their husbands, to love their children,

5 To be discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the word of God be not blasphemed.

6 Young men likewise exhort to be sober minded.

7 In all things shewing thyself a pattern of good works: in doctrine shewing uncorruptness, gravity, sincerity,

8 Sound speech, that cannot be condemned; that he that is of the contrary part may be ashamed, having no evil thing to say of you.

9 Exhort servants to be obedient unto their own masters, and to please them well in all things; not answering again;

10 Not purloining^[9], but shewing all good fidelity; that they may adorn the doctrine of God our Saviour in all things.

11 ¶ For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men,

12 Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts^[10], we should live soberly, righteously^[11], and godly, in this present world;

13 Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ;

14 Who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify unto himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works.

15 ¶ These things speak, and exhort, and rebuke with all authority. Let no man despise thee.
