This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
2Ti 3:13. Πονηροὶ, evil men) The antithesis is godly, 2Ti 3:12. These are πλανώμενοι, with a middle signification, who permit themselves to be seduced.-γόητες) seducers, enchanters, like those of Egypt, 2Ti 3:8. These are πλανῶντες, seducers.-προκόψουσιν, shall proceed to) so that no one will persecute them, but they will persecute the godly.-πλανῶντες καὶ πλανώμενοι, deceiving and being deceived) He who has once begun to deceive others, is the less easily able to recover himself from error, and the more easily embraces in turn the errors of others.
