1 Timothy6:8
Having food and raiment, let us be therewith content - Αρκεσθησομεθα· Let us consider this a competency. And it is evident that the apostle considers this a competency, and by these words explains what he said 1Tim 6:6.
The word ακεπασματα, which we translate raiment, signifies covering in general; and here means house or lodging, as well as clothing.
