NET Notes

¹tn “And” is not in Greek, but is supplied for the sake of English style.

²tn Or “going.” Though the participle is anarthrous, so also is the subject. Thus, the participle could be either adverbial or adjectival.

³tn Grk “(who go/going) according to their own lusts.”

⁴tn Grk “and their mouth speaks bombastic things.”

⁴sn They give bombastic speeches. The idiom of opening one’s mouth in the NT often implied a public oration from a teacher or one in authority. Cf. Matt 5:2; Luke 4:22; Acts 1:16; 3:18; 10:34; Eph 6:19; Rev 13:5-6.

⁵sn Enchanting folks (Grk “awing faces”) refers to the fact that the speeches of these false teachers are powerful and seductive.

⁶tn Or “to their own advantage.”
