What does 2 Timothy 4:14-15 Mean?

Contextual Meaning

The Alexander Paul warned Timothy about may have been the same man he mentioned in 1 Timothy 1:20 (cf. Acts 19:33-34), though Alexander was a common name. Paul did not want Timothy to retaliate against him. The Lord would take care of that ( Psalm 62:12). Timothy should simply beware of him.
