Compare all
6 For aof this sort are those who creep into households and make captives of gullible women loaded down with sins, led away by various lusts,  
7 always learning and never able ato come to the knowledge of the truth.  
8 aNow as Jannes and Jambres resisted Moses, so do these also resist the truth: bmen of corrupt minds, cdisapproved concerning the faith;  
9 but they will progress no further, for their folly will be manifest to all, aas theirs also was.  

The Man of God and the Word of God

10 aBut you have carefully followed my doctrine, manner of life, purpose, faith, longsuffering, love, perseverance,  
11 persecutions, afflictions, which happened to me aat Antioch, bat Iconium, cat Lystra—what persecutions I endured. And dout of them all the Lord delivered me.  
12 Yes, and aall who desire to live godly in Christ Jesus will suffer persecution.  
13 aBut evil men and impostors will grow worse and worse, deceiving and being deceived.  
14 But you must acontinue in the things which you have learned and been assured of, knowing from whom you have learned them,  
15 and that from childhood you have known athe Holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.  
16 aAll Scripture is given by inspiration of God, band is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for1 instruction in righteousness,

2 Timothy 3:8

II Timothy 3:8 As Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses. These were the traditional names of the Egyptian magicians who opposed Moses. See Exodus 7:11. Paul adopts these names in referring to them. As these opposed Moses, so do the false teachers just described oppose the truth. These names are found in a Jewish Targum on Exodus 7:11 22:11. Reprobate concerning the faith. Have abandoned the faith.
