1 TIMOTHY 3:10 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 1
“And let these also first be proved; then let them use the office of a deacon, being found blameless.”
And let them first be tested; then, if they prove themselves blameless, let them serve as deacons — the testing (dokimazō) precedes authorization, ensuring only those of demonstrated virtue exercise diaconal ministry. Blamelessly (anegklētos) echoes earlier qualifications, maintaining consistency across leadership tiers.
