Let the elders that rule well. The officials called "bishops" previously are here called elders.

See PNT 1Ti 3:1.

Be counted worthy of double honour. Held in especial esteem, and not only treated with respect, but maintained.

Especially they who labour in the word and doctrine. The class we call preachers, or pastors. That support is referred to is shown by 1Ti 5:18.
