In early Christian times, Timothy, Paul’s faithful companion on some of Paul’s missionary travels, was raised with a knowledge of the Hebrew Scriptures by his grandmother Lois and his mother, Eunice.
Algkristlikel aegadel õpetasid Timoteose vanaema Loise ja tema ema Euniike Timoteost, kes oli Paulusele mõnel misjonireisil ustavaks kaaslaseks, tundma Heebrea Kirju.
