"a whisperer," occurs in an evil sense in Romans 1:29 .
"a whispering," is used of "secret slander" in 2 Corinthians 12:20 . In the Sept., Ecclesiastes 10:11 , of "a murmured enchantment."
Note: Synonymous with No. 1 is katalalos, "a backbiter" (Romans 1:30 ), the distinction being that this denotes one guilty of open calumny, psithuristes, one who does it clandestinely.Copyright Statement
