Study to be approved..
#1
Quote: 2 Timothy 2:15
Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

This would be Paul speaking to Timothy, but I don't find anywhere in Torah that studying Torah makes us 'approved'.

This is the NIV version
15 Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a workman who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly handles the word of truth.

And the CJB version
15 Do all you can to present yourself to God as someone worthy of his approval, as a worker with no need to be ashamed, because he deals straightforwardly with the Word of the Truth.

The Greek word, 'Spoudazo', basically means to give diligence or to hasten to, it is only once translated to read 'study'.
