## False prophets came to the Israelites, and false teachers will come to you ## Just as false prophets came deceiving Israel with their words, so will false teachers come teaching lies about Christ. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-parallelism]]) ## heresies ## opinions that are contrary to the teaching of Christ and the apostles. ## the Master who bought them ## Jesus is the Master who paid for the sins of all men through His death, burial and resurrection. ## their sensuality ## "their" refers to the false prophet and teachers. Alternate translation: "how they behave in an extremely immoral manner" ## Against them condemnation will not wait long; their destruction is not idle ## judgment against the false prophets will be forthcoming and not delay excessively.
