The DEI in I Timothy 3:2

The majority of commentators I read on this passage tend to reflect
personal, denominational or peer bias when dealing with this word
exegetically, so I find them dubiously helpful in answering this
question: grammatically, contextually and objectively, to which of the
items listed in I Timothy 3:2-7 (note it is repeated in verse 7) does
the DEI apply?

Can of worms anyone?
