Толкование К Титу послание ап. Павла 2 глава 8 стих - Экзегет

And since there are “many who are insubordinate, vain talkers, and deceivers of minds,” who “hate him who reproved in the gate and abhorred holy speech,” therefore we should offer ourselves as an example “in all things,” in doctrine, in integrity, in chastity, in sound and irreproachable speech, so that the adversaries of life and those who are terrified by the soundness of our doctrine may not dare to accuse, that is, to fabricate anything factually true as an accusation. And indeed until today we see that there are some in the church of such great dignity and continence (although he is a rare bird) that they are even attested by their adversaries, and it is said, “That is a great man and one of holy life and with proven character, were he not a heretic.” For no one is of such limitless impudence that he could accuse sunbeams of being dark and could cover over a bright light with the darkness of night. This is why the apostle takes precautions against these very things and says, “that I might remove the occasion from whose who want an occasion.”
Now it is possible to interpret “the one who is opposed” as the devil, because he is the accuser of our brethren, as John the evangelist asserts. Since he has nothing evil to raise as an objection against us, he is ashamed and the incriminator will not be able to incriminate. Now “devil” expresses “incriminator” in the Latin language.
