'And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, and their damnation slumbereth not.' Peter's warning about false teachers who 'exploit you with fabricated words' (plastois logois) identifies financial covetousness as the motor of false teaching: truth is manufactured to serve the teacher's greed. The counter-intuitive consolation — 'their judgment lingereth not, their damnation slumbereth not' — insists that apparent divine delay in punishing false teachers is not divine indifference but patience (2 Peter 3:9). 1 Timothy 6:5 and Titus 1:11's descriptions of those who teach 'for filthy lucre's sake' address the same corruption.
