The Epistles of John 2John 1-13

The Epistles of John (2John 1-13) We continue our look at the letters of John; tonight the letter called 2John. In many ways the letter of 2John is an overview or review of 1John. Some of the same concepts found in 1John are found in 2John.

The Epistles of John (2John 1,13) Identifying the Elect Lady There are two possible meanings of the term ‘elect lady.’ First, she could be a person, whose children are walking faithfully. Why she is not specifically named is not known. Second, she could be a figurative way to refer to a congregation of the Lord’s church.

The Epistles of John (2John 1) The Meaning of the Word ‘Elder’ The context makes it seem that John is speaking of himself as an old man, and not as a pastor. Note of how Peter addresses himself as elder in 1Pet. 5:1 and how 2Jn. 1 is different. The office of elder is always referred to in the plural in the NT, and it not so in 2Jn. 1.

The Epistles of John (2John 1-13) A Brief Exposition of 2John Verse 1. The words ‘in truth’ are a synonym for sincerely. Note 1Jn. 3:18. Verses 2,3. John is still encouraging the brethren to walk in the truth (a theme we see throughout 1Jn.).

The Epistles of John (2John 1-13) A Brief Exposition of 2John Verse 4. The word ‘some’ or ‘certain’ is not in the original text. To insert either one changes the meaning of the verse. It is probable that John is commending the fact that the brethren are walking in the truth rather than to remark that only a few are.

The Epistles of John (2John 1-13) A Brief Exposition of 2John Verses 5,6. This is the same concept (love for God and the brethren) that was discussed at length in 1Jn. 4.

The Epistles of John (2John 1-13) A Brief Exposition of 2John Verses John warns again to stay clear of those who do not believe that Jesus is deity made flesh (the antichrist). 2.Compare 2Jn. 8 with 1Jn. 5:9,10,12. 3.To eat a meal with someone, in the first century culture, was to give full approval of their deeds and teachings.

The Epistles of John (2John 1-13) A Brief Exposition of 2John Verses 12,13. 1.The apostle would rather see the brethren face to face than have to write another letter. 2.Other brethren of a sister congregation send their greetings.

The Epistles of John (2John) The thrust of 2John is to encourage the brethren to keep on doing the things mentioned in 1John. John is personally encouraging them by letter and sends greetings from another congregation. The admonition to keep on keeping on is a good one, because it is easy to grow weary.
