John Gill Commentary 1 Timothy 5:16

"If any woman that believeth hath widows, let her relieve them, and let not the church be burdened; that it mat relieve them that are widows indeed." — 1 Timothy 5:16 (ASV)

If any man or woman that believeth have widows
That is, if any member of a church, whether a brother or a sister, have mothers or grandmothers, or any near relations widows, in mean circumstances, and incapable of taking care of themselves:

let them relieve them ;
out of their own substance; which is what the apostle before calls showing piety at home, and requiting their own parents:

and let not the church be charged ;
or burdened with the maintenance of them:

that it may relieve them that are widows indeed ;
that the church may be in a better capacity, its stock not being expended on others, to supply the wants of those who are really widows; who have neither husbands, nor children, nor any relations, to provide for them; nor anything in the world to support themselves with.
