Timothy \Tim"o*thy\ (Bible)
A disciple and companion of St. Paul. He was the son of a
Greek and a Jewess, and his home was either at Derbe, or
Lystra in Lycaonia. Paul set him apart as a minister of the
new gospel, and after preaching in Macedonia and Achaia, he
went, at Paul's request to Ephesus, and accompanied the
apostle to Jerusalem. It was to him that the two epistles to
Timothy were addressed by the apostle Paul. According to
tradition, Timothy suffered martyrdom under Domitian. --The
Student's Cyclopedia, 1897.
