2 Juan 1:10 Meaning and Commentary

2 John 1:10

If there come any unto you
Under the character of a preacher;

and bring not this doctrine;
or does not preach the doctrine of Christ, as before explained, but despises it, and preaches a contrary one:

receive him not into [your] house;
neither into the house of God, suffer him not to preach there; nor into your own house, give him no entertainment there: false teachers always tried to creep into houses, where they served their own turn every way, both by feeding their bellies, and spreading their pernicious doctrines; and therefore such should: be avoided, both publicly and privately; their ministry should not be attended on in the church, or house of God; and they should not be entertained in private houses, and much less caressed:

neither bid him God speed;
or give him the usual civil form of salutation, as a good day to you, all hail, all health and prosperity attend you, the Lord be with you, and the like. The word used by the Jews was (rvya) , which signifies "happiness"; so it is said ^F9, what do they salute with? (rvya) , "God speed"; which was forbidden to say to one that was ploughing in the seventh year. The meaning is, that with such no familiar conversation should be had, lest any encouragement should be given them; or it should induce a suspicion in the minds of other saints, that they are in the same sentiments; or it should tend to make others think favourably of them, and be a snare and a stumblingblock to weak Christians.

2 Juan 1:10 In-Context

8 Tengan cuidado de no perder lo que hemos
logrado con tanto trabajo. Sean diligentes para que reciban una recompensa completa.

9 Todo el que se desvía de esta enseñanza no tiene ninguna relación con Dios; pero el que permanece en la enseñanza de Cristo tiene una relación tanto con el Padre como con el Hijo.

10 Si a sus reuniones llegara alguien que no enseña la verdad acerca de Cristo, no lo inviten a su casa ni le den ninguna clase de apoyo.

11 Cualquiera que apoye a ese tipo de gente se hace cómplice de sus malas acciones.

12 Conclusión
Tengo mucho más que decirles, pero no quiero hacerlo con papel y tinta. Pues espero visitarlos pronto y hablarles cara a cara. Entonces nuestra alegría será completa.
