I exhort therefore, first of all, that supplications, prayers, intercessions, thanksgivings, be made for all men,

For Adam was first formed, then Eve.

And let these also first be proven, then being blameless, let them serve as deacons.

But if any widow has children or grandchildren, let them first learn to be devoted to their own house, and to give back recompense to their parents, for this is acceptable in the sight of God.
