Meaning

The verse "But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived," highlights the warning that in the last days, there will be a proliferation of falsehood and deception perpetuated by wicked individuals. The term "evil men" refers to those who engage in malicious and harmful behavior, while "seducers" are those who lead others astray or into sin. The verse emphasizes that as time progresses, these individuals will become increasingly corrupt and will continue to deceive others, while also falling prey to deception themselves. This serves as a cautionary message to believers, urging them to be vigilant and discerning in order to avoid falling into the traps set by those who seek to mislead them. By being aware of the potential for deception and remaining steadfast in their faith, believers can guard themselves against the deceitful tactics of evil men and seducers.
