1 John 2:24
As for you ( υμεις ). Emphatic proleptic position before the relative ο and subject of ηκουσατε, a familiar idiom in Joh 8:45; 10:29, etc. Here for emphatic contrast with the antichrists. See 1:1 for απ' αρχης (from the beginning).Let abide in you ( εν υμιν μενετω ). Present active imperative of μενω, to remain. Do not be carried away by the new-fangled Gnostic teaching.
