1 John 2:26 - Exposition

resumes for a moment and concludes the section respecting antichrists. "These things" refers to what precedes, especially 1 John 2:18-23 , as distinct from what now follows. The present participle τῶν πλανώντων indicates the continual attempt of these false teachers to lead the "little children" astray. ἔγραψα , as in 1 John 2:21 , is the "epistolary aorist" (see on 2 John 1:4 ).
