1. Genesis 4:22

   And Zillah gave birth to Tubal-cain, a forger of every implement of bronze and iron. And the sister of Tubal-cain was Naamah.

   ›Commentary on Genesis 4:221 voice

   “Tubal-cain - The first smith on record, who taught how to make warlike instruments and domestic utensils out of brass and iron. Agricultural instruments must have been in use long before, for Cain was a tiller of the ground, and so was Adam, and they could not have cultivated the ground without spades, hooks, etc. Some of these arts were useless to man while innocent and upright, but after his fall they became necessary. Thus is the saying verified: God made man upright, but they have sought out many inventions.

3. 2 Timothy 4:14

   Alexander the coppersmith did great harm to me. The Lord will repay him according to his deeds.

   ›Commentary on 2 Timothy 4:142 voices

   “Alexander the coppersmith--or "smith" in general. Perhaps the same as the Alexander (see on 1Ti 1:20) at Ephesus. Excommunicated then he subsequently was restored, and now vented his personal malice because of his excommunication in accusing Paul before the Roman judges, whether of incendiarism or of introducing a new religion.

   “Alexander the coppersmith did me much evil,.... This seems to be the same person that was at Ephesus in the tumult, when the apostle was there, Act 20:33 and whom he afterwards delivered to Satan, along with Hymenaeus, for blasphemy, 1Ti 1:
