According to Reformed Theology, what is the exegetical basis for the claim that 1 Timothy 2:4 means "all kinds of people"?

I am not an expert with Hermeneutics or methods of Exegesis, yet I am in the process of learning such things. This particular verse is easier to understand in terms of a basic tenet of Hermeneutics, namely: **Context**. Yet, in a Reformed book called "*What's so Great about the Doctrines of Grace"*, we have Richard D. Phillip's assertion as follows: > "First are those that seem to teach that God wills the salvation of > all people. An example is 1 Timothy 2:3-4, where Paul says that God > "desires all people to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the > truth." But who are these "all"? Going back to the start of the > chapter, we see that Paul means all kinds or classes of people. He > asks his readers to pray "for all people," such as "kings and all who > are in high positions" 1 Timothy 2:1-2)."
