# Their talk will spread like cancer
Cancer quickly spreads in a person's body and destroys it. This is a metaphor that means what those people were saying would spread from person to person and harm the faith of those who heard it. Alternate translation: "What they say will spread like an infectious disease" or "Their talk will spread quickly and cause destruction like cancer" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-simile]])
# Hymenaeus and Philetus
These are names of men. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/translate-names]])
