1 Timothy 6:15
In its own times ( καιροις ιδιοις ). Locative case. May be "in his own times." See 2:6. Clearly not for us to figure out.Who is the blessed and only Potentate ( ο μακαριος κα μονος δυναστης ). "The happy and alone Potentate." Δυναστης, old word, in N.T. only here, Lu 1:52; Ac 8:27 (the Eunuch). See 1:11 for μακαριος.
The King of kings ( ο βασιλευς των βασιλευοντων ). "The King of those who rule as kings." Oriental title. So with "Lord of lords." See Re 10:16.
