2 Jean 1:7

7 Car plusieurs séducteurs sont entrés dans le monde, qui ne confessent point que Jésus-Christ est venu en chair. Un tel homme est le séducteur et l'antichrist.

2 Jean 1:7 Meaning and Commentary

2 John 1:7

For many deceivers are entered into the world
By whom are meant false teachers, who are described by their quality, "deceivers", deceitful workers, pretending to be ministers of Christ, to have a: value for truth, a love for souls, and a view to the glory of God, but lie in wait to deceive, and handle the word of God deceitfully; and by their quantity or number, "many", and so likely to do much mischief; and by the place where they were, they were "entered into the world"; or "gone out into the world", as the Alexandrian copy and some others, and the Vulgate Latin and Syriac versions read; (See Gill on 1 John 4:1); and by their tenet,

who confess not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh;
these were not the Jews who denied that Jesus was the Christ, though they would not allow that Christ was come in the flesh; but these were some who bore the Christian name, and professed to believe in Jesus Christ, but would not own that he was really incarnate, or assumed a true human nature, only in appearance; and denied that he took true and real flesh of the virgin, but only seemed to do so; and these are confuted by the apostle, ( 1 John 1:1 ) ; and upon everyone of these he justly fixes the following character.

This is a deceiver and an antichrist;
one of the deceivers that were come into the world, and one of the antichrists that were already in it; and who were the forerunners of the man of sin, and in whom the mystery of iniquity already began to work; for antichrist does not design anyone particular individual person, but a set of men, that are contrary to Christ, and opposers of him.

2 Jean 1:7 In-Context

5 Et maintenant, dame élue, je te prie, non comme si je t'écrivais un commandement nouveau, mais celui que nous avons eu dès le commencement, c'est que nous nous aimions les uns les autres.
6 Et c'est ici la charité, que nous marchions selon ses commandements. C'est là le commandement comme vous l'avez entendu dès le commencement, afin que vous le suiviez.
7 Car plusieurs séducteurs sont entrés dans le monde, qui ne confessent point que Jésus-Christ est venu en chair. Un tel homme est le séducteur et l'antichrist.
8 Prenez garde à vous, afin que nous ne perdions pas le fruit de notre travail, mais que nous en recevions une pleine récompense.
9 Quiconque est transgresseur et ne demeure pas dans la doctrine de Christ, n'a point Dieu. Celui qui demeure dans la doctrine de Christ, a et le Père et le Fils.
