Notes on The First Epistle of St. Paul to Timothy (Author Bishop Richard Challoner (ed.))
3:2 Of one wife: The meaning is not that every bishop should have a wife (for St. Paul himself had none), but that no one should be admitted to the holy orders of bishop, priest, or deacon, who had been married more than once.
