2 PETER 2:11 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 1
“Whereas angels, which are greater in power and might, bring not railing accusation against them before the Lord.”
Whereas angels, though greater in might and power, do not pronounce a reviling judgment against them before the Lord — the contrast highlights moral paradox: spiritual beings superior in power exercise restraint in judgment. The phrase before the Lord (para kyriō) suggests that judgment belongs only to God; even angels defer judgment authority. The false teachers' boldness in condemning authority figures is thereby revealed as presumptuous.
