8Just as Jannes and Jambres [the court magicians of Egypt] opposed Moses, so these men also oppose the truth, men of depraved mind, unqualified and worthless [as teachers] in regard to the faith. [Ex 7:11]
8Just as Jannes and Jambres opposed Moses,3:8 See Jasher 79:27. The Book of Jashar or the Book of the Upright One is often cited as Jasher. so also these men oppose the truth. They are depraved in mind and disqualified from the faith.
8Jannes and Jambres opposed Moses. In the same way, the teachers I’m talking about oppose the truth. Their minds are twisted. As far as the faith is concerned, God doesn’t accept them.
