• If you have not got the true Christ, you have not God at all. That is the first great broad principle. All through John, when he is speaking of relationship, it is the Son; but if of nature, it is God, not the Father. (“Notes on 2 John” by J.N. Darby)

• The only way to be kept is holding fast what God has really taught us, yet using this as the groundwork for making progress. Such is the true way to "abide." (“2 John” by W. Kelly)

WK Translation Notes

a
The correction here is most important, "Whosoever goeth onward," proagōn, not parabainōn (transgresses), as in the T. R. and the more ordinary copies. "Transgression" is not the point, but development as to Christ, instead of abiding in the doctrine of Christ, His deity and humanity. The word "proagōn" means going forward or taking the lead, the contrast of abiding in the teaching or doctrine of Christ and the truth of His person. It is a development, so characteristic of the school of tradition which deifies the church, or the yet more irrelevant invention of heresiarchs impatient to advance beyond the limits of revelation. Which neither prizes the truth and nothing but the truth, both go outside the truth to its destruction, utterly ignorant of the whole truth, which Christ is at least as much as what He taught.
b
It is really more forcible to omit the repetition of "of Christ," in the latter half of the verse. It is superfluous. The oldest and best authorities not only omit this, but adhere to the order of "the Father and the Son," contrary the Latin copies.
