4:10 Demas: See Col 4:14; Phlm 1:24. • deserted: See also 2 Tim 4:16-17; cp. Ps 22:1; Mark 15:34. • Loving the things of this life contrasts with the anticipation of Christ’s glorious return (2 Tim 4:8). • Crescens is otherwise unknown; his and Titus’s absence seems to have heightened Paul’s isolation. • Titus was Paul’s effective and reliable co-worker. Perhaps he had gone to Dalmatia (northwest of modern-day Greece) on a mission for Paul.
