Heretic, Heretical
here-tik, here-tik, he-reti-kal (, hairetikos): Used in Tit 3:10, must be interpreted according to the sense in which Paul employs the word heresy (1Co 11:19; Gal 5:20) for parties or factions. According to this, the Scriptural meaning of the word is no more than a factious man (American Standard Revised Version), an agitator who creates divisions and makes parties. Weizscker translates it into German ein Sektierer, a sectarist. The nature of the offense is described in other words in 2Th 2:6, 2Th 2:11.
