What the Fathers say

2 Peter 2:14

Eastern Fathers

Theophylact of Ohrid

For having eyes, they look at nothing other than lust, and unceasingly having this in mind and sinning, as sons of cursing, they entice unstable souls.

Commentary on 2 Peter ↗

Western Saints

Bede

Leading astray unstable souls. Whores are usually called "enticeresses," derived from pollution, or from the beauty of their skin by which they lure the unsuspecting. Therefore, they lead astray unstable souls who, by teaching them wrongly, bring them under the various heretical doctrines as if corrupting them with sensual pleasures.
