2 Timothy 3:6

For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts,

Of this sort - Greek, 'of these' (2 Timothy 3:5).

Creep into - stealthily (2 Peter 2:1; Jude 1:4).

Laden, [ sesooreumena (G4987 ): implying multitude and disorderly confusion: heaped] with sins (Isaiah 1:4) - applying to the "silly women" (more easily misled than man, 1 Timothy 2:14), whose consciences, burdened with sins, are a ready prey to the false teachers who promise relief if they will follow them. A bad conscience leads to shipwreck of faith (1 Timothy 1:19).

Divers lusts - not only animal, but passion for change in doctrine and manner: the running after fashionable men and fashionable tenets, drawing them in opposite directions (Alford).
