Titus 2:3–5 assigns older women the work of training younger wives in the practical shape of a godly household. Their character comes first, and the aim is that God's word may not be blasphemed.

Titus 2:3–5 places older women at the center of discipleship in the church, not on its margins. Their conduct and their teaching of what is good are meant to shape younger wives in love, self-control, purity, and faithfulness at home.
