Summary Of Commentaries Associated With The Selected Verse
| A Commentary, Critical, Practical, and Explanatory on the Old and New Testaments, by Robert Jamieson, A.R. Fausset and David Brown [1882] |
These things-- (Jo1 2:18-25).
have I written--resumed from Jo1 2:21 and Jo1 2:14.
seduce you--that is, are trying to seduce or lead you into error. |
| Notes on the Bible, by Albert Barnes, [1834] |
| These things have I written unto you concerning them that seduce you - Respecting their character, and in order to guard you against their arts. The word "seduce" means to lead astray; and it here refers to those who would seduce them "from the truth," or lead them into dangerous error. The apostle does not mean that they had actually seduced them, for he states in the following verse that they were yet safe; but he refers to the fact that there was danger that they might be led into error. |
| Vincent's Word Studies, by Marvin R. Vincent [1886] |
Seduce (πλανώντων)
See on Jo1 1:8. Rev., lead astray. |

| Adam Clarke Commentary on the Whole Bible - Published 1810-1826 |

14 I have written [1125] unto you [5213], fathers [3962], because [3754] ye have known [1097] him that is from [575] the beginning [746]. I have written [1125] unto you [5213], young men [3495], because [3754] ye are [2075] strong [2478], and [2532] the word [3056] of God [2316] abideth [3306] in [1722] you [5213], and [2532] ye have overcome [3528] the wicked one [4190].
21 I have [1125] not [3756] written [1125] unto you [5213] because [3754] ye know [1492] not [3756] the truth [225], but [235] because [3754] ye know [1492] it [846], and [2532] that [3754] no [3956] [3756] lie [5579] is [2076] of [1537] the truth [225].
18 Little children [3813], it is [2076] the last [2078] time [5610]: and [2532] as [2531] ye have heard [191] that [3754] antichrist [500] shall come [2064], even [2532] now [3568] are there [1096] many [4183] antichrists [500]; whereby [3606] we know [1097] that [3754] it is [2076] the last [2078] time [5610].
19 They went out [1831] from [1537] us [2257], but [235] they were [2258] not [3756] of [1537] us [2257]; for [1063] if [1487] they had been [2258] of [1537] us [2257], they would [302] no doubt have continued [3306] with [3326] us [2257]: but [235] they went out, that [2443] they might be made manifest [5319] that [3754] they were [1526] not [3756] all [3956] of [1537] us [2257].
20 But [2532] ye [5210] have [2192] an unction [5545] from [575] the Holy One [40], and [2532] ye know [1492] all things [3956].
21 I have [1125] not [3756] written [1125] unto you [5213] because [3754] ye know [1492] not [3756] the truth [225], but [235] because [3754] ye know [1492] it [846], and [2532] that [3754] no [3956] [3756] lie [5579] is [2076] of [1537] the truth [225].
22 Who [5101] is [2076] a liar [5583] but [1508] he that denieth [720] that [3754] Jesus [2424] is [2076] [3756] the Christ [5547]? He [3778] is [2076] antichrist [500], that denieth [720] the Father [3962] and [2532] the Son [5207].
23 Whosoever [3956] denieth [720] the Son [5207], the same hath [2192] not [3761] the Father [3962]: (but) he that acknowledgeth [3670] the Son [5207] hath [2192] the Father [3962] also [2532].
24 Let [3306] that therefore [3767] abide [3306] in [1722] you [5213], which [3739] ye [5210] have heard [191] from [575] the beginning [746]. If [1437] that which [3739] ye have heard [191] from [575] the beginning [746] shall remain [3306] in [1722] you [5213], ye [5210] also [2532] shall continue [3306] in [1722] the Son [5207], and [2532] in [1722] the Father [3962].
25 And [2532] this [3778] is [2076] the promise [1860] that [3739] he [846] hath promised [1861] us [2254], even eternal [166] life [2222].
8 If [1437] we say [2036] that [3754] we have [2192] no [3756] sin [266], we deceive [4105] ourselves [1438], and [2532] the truth [225] is [2076] not [3756] in [1722] us [2254].
20 But [2532] ye [5210] have [2192] an unction [5545] from [575] the Holy One [40], and [2532] ye know [1492] all things [3956].
27 But [2532] the anointing [5545] which [3739] ye [5210] have received [2983] of [575] him [846] abideth [3306] in [1722] you [5213], and [2532] ye need [5532] [2192] not [3756] that [2443] any man [5100] teach [1321] you [5209]: but [235] as [5613] the same [846] anointing [5545] teacheth [1321] you [5209] of [4012] all things [3956], and [2532] is [2076] truth [227], and [2532] is [2076] no [3756] lie [5579], and [2532] even as [2531] it hath taught [1321] you [5209], ye shall abide [3306] in [1722] him [846].
20 But [2532] ye [5210] have [2192] an unction [5545] from [575] the Holy One [40], and [2532] ye know [1492] all things [3956].
21 I have [1125] not [3756] written [1125] unto you [5213] because [3754] ye know [1492] not [3756] the truth [225], but [235] because [3754] ye know [1492] it [846], and [2532] that [3754] no [3956] [3756] lie [5579] is [2076] of [1537] the truth [225].
22 Who [5101] is [2076] a liar [5583] but [1508] he that denieth [720] that [3754] Jesus [2424] is [2076] [3756] the Christ [5547]? He [3778] is [2076] antichrist [500], that denieth [720] the Father [3962] and [2532] the Son [5207].
23 Whosoever [3956] denieth [720] the Son [5207], the same hath [2192] not [3761] the Father [3962]: (but) he that acknowledgeth [3670] the Son [5207] hath [2192] the Father [3962] also [2532].
24 Let [3306] that therefore [3767] abide [3306] in [1722] you [5213], which [3739] ye [5210] have heard [191] from [575] the beginning [746]. If [1437] that which [3739] ye have heard [191] from [575] the beginning [746] shall remain [3306] in [1722] you [5213], ye [5210] also [2532] shall continue [3306] in [1722] the Son [5207], and [2532] in [1722] the Father [3962].
25 And [2532] this [3778] is [2076] the promise [1860] that [3739] he [846] hath promised [1861] us [2254], even eternal [166] life [2222].
26 These [5023] things have I written [1125] unto you [5213] concerning [4012] them that seduce [4105] you [5209].
21 I have [1125] not [3756] written [1125] unto you [5213] because [3754] ye know [1492] not [3756] the truth [225], but [235] because [3754] ye know [1492] it [846], and [2532] that [3754] no [3956] [3756] lie [5579] is [2076] of [1537] the truth [225].
