Commentary
falling away
See also: Apostasia
ἀποστασία, translated as a falling away in the King James Version.
Just as the word apologia may be erroneously defined by English speaking people as "apologizing", so too many monolingual folks place the English definition of "apostasy" in the place of the more vibrant Greek definition of a departure/falling away.
The English word “farther” is used to refer to physical distances, whereas further refers to figurative and nonphysical distances, as in the word furthermore. Farther is the comparative of “far,” whereas “further” is comparative of “forth.” “Farther” is mostly concerned with distance, whereas “further” is concerned with abstract and metaphorical contexts. To further something as in encourage growth and progress. This is said to be the issue with ἀποστασία, some say it is only every an abstract departure, "from faith" etc., while aphistemi is said to be primarily a physical departure.
‘apostasia’ comes from - ‘aphistemi’ which is ‘apo’ - ‘from’ and ‘histemi’ - ‘to stand; to place’.
The term "falling away" has a historical and theological significance in English, particularly within the context of religious discourse. Its meaning has evolved over the years, reflecting changes in religious beliefs and interpretations:
Early Christian Usage: The phrase "falling away" finds its roots in biblical texts, specifically in the New Testament. In the Greek language of the New Testament, the term "apostasia" is used, which means "defection" or "rebellion." In 2 Thessalonians 2:3, the Apostle Paul refers to a future "falling away" before the second coming of Christ.
Reformation Era: During the Reformation in the 16th century, the concept of "falling away" gained prominence as various Christian groups sought to reform the Catholic Church. The term was used to describe perceived departures from true faith and adherence to the teachings of the early Christian church.
Protestant Interpretations: In Protestant theology, the idea of "falling away" has been associated with the concept of apostasy. It refers to the act of renouncing or abandoning one's faith or departing from orthodox Christian beliefs. Protestant theologians and preachers have often warned about the dangers of falling away from the true faith and have emphasized the need for steadfastness and perseverance.
Evolving Interpretations: Over the centuries, interpretations of the term "falling away" have varied within different Christian traditions. Some interpret it as a reference to a general decline in religious fervor or a departure from moral values within society. Others understand it as a specific event or period of apostasy that precedes significant eschatological events.
It is worth noting that the term "falling away" has also been used in non-religious contexts to describe a departure or separation from various beliefs, ideologies, or societal norms.
In summary, the term "falling away" has been used within Christian theology to describe the act of departing from or abandoning the faith. Its meaning and significance have evolved over time, reflecting the changing interpretations and theological perspectives within Christianity.

Geneva Bible
In the 1560 Geneva Bible, the term "departure" is used in 2 Thessalonians 2:3, and it is understood as synonymous with "falling away." It used "departure" to translate the Greek word "apostasia" in this verse. In that era, most understood it as referring to a departure from the true faith or a falling away from the teachings of the early Christian church. This translation choice was influenced by the theological context of the Reformation, where the idea of departing from corrupt religious institutions and returning to the true teachings of Christianity was significant.
Theodore Beza
In his 1598 Annotations, Beza has:
- Ante adventum Domini prædicit Apostolus erigendum thronum aliquen gloriaæ Christi ex diametro oppositum, in quo perditus ille sedens, omnis quæ Dei sunt ad se transfert, plerisque a deo a ipsum deficientibus.
translated as:
- Before the coming of the Lord, the apostle foretold that a throne would be erected diametrically opposite to the glory of Christ, in which the lost one, sitting, transfers to himself all that is God's, and most of them fall from God.
Douay Rheims
George Abbott
King James Translator George Abbott said the 'falling away' is an apostasy and revolt:
- "Our Savior’s words intend so much, when alluding to the time of his second appearance, to judge the quick and the dead, he asketh, Nevertheless, when the Son of man cometh, shall he find faith on earth (Luke 18:8)? As meaning, that very little should then be found, in comparison of the Floods and Ocean of iniquity which everywhere should abound. But God, to the end that he might not have us ignorant but warned beforehand into what straights the Church should be brought, informeth us by Saint Paul (2 Thes. 2. 3), that the Lord shall not come, except there first be an apostasy, or revolt, or falling away, wherein Antichrist with great pride and disdain should shew himself. This is solemnly spoken of by the Apostle, and by all both old and new, intreating of it, is observed to some matter of great note. Many of our Papists fearing to touch this sore, which can in no case turn them to good, would have that interpreted, to note nothing else but the slipping of divers regions & countries from their subjection to the Roman Empire. (A treatise of the perpetual visibility, and succession of the true church in all ages) (1624; p.13-14).
John Mill
KJV Today
- There are two issues here: the translation of the noun and the proper translation of the article. The noun is αποστασια. Although it could mean “rebellion,” the most literal translation is “departing” or “falling away.” Αποστασια, derived from the words “απο (away from)” and “στασισ (standing),” means “away from standing” or “falling away.” “Rebellion” is the figurative meaning, since the act of rebellion is due to “falling away” from authority (whether it be the truth or a government). Although it is common to interpret this “falling away” as the end-time rebellion, the literal translation enables the reader to interpret “falling away” as referring to the departing of believers from earth in the rapture. In a chapter as mysterious and ambiguous as 2 Thessalonians 2 it may be wise not to translate anything too narrowly in a way that eliminates the possibility of various valid interpretations.
- In regards to the article, αποστασια is preceded by “η,” the definite article. The definite article would normally be translated as “the.” However, the KJV reads “a falling away.” This is because the use of the article here is to substantivise the verb-like noun “αποστασια.” Αποστασια is without a doubt a noun, but it has the connotation of a participle verb. It means, “falling away,” which in English is a gerund, a verb-turned-noun. Without the article, the passage would read in the sense of “that day shall not come, except falling away comes first.” The substantiver makes it clearer that “falling away” is an event (noun) rather than a generic act of falling away (verb). Since there is no indefinite article in Greek, the best way to substantivise the noun and give it greater force as a noun is to precede the verb-like-noun with a definite article. Since the definite article here is neither anaphoric nor kataphoric (referring to something previous or following) nor deictic/demonstrative (pointing to something), there is no need to translate the article as the definite article in English. English has the indefinite article which serves a substantivising function, so “a falling away” is a valid translation. [4]

2 Thessalonians 2:3 “A falling away” or “THE falling away”?
“Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come A FALLING AWAY FIRST, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition”
A Bible agnostic railed against the King James Bible and posted a "Laundry list" of alleged errors he copied and pasted from an anti-King James Bible site that is pro-Textus Receptus and pro NKJV, but claims there are many errors in the King James Bible.
Among their Laundry List of alleged errors is 2 Thessalonians 2:3 where the KJB says “except there come A falling away first” and the NKJV says “unless THE falling away comes first”.
These King James Bible critics raise a big stink about how the KJB does NOT translate the definite article “the” before “falling away”. Throughout their article they WAY overstate their case and come up with some really wild claims.
They tell us: “A textual error occurs when translators supply or omits words which are not in the Greek text with no indication, such as italics, that a word has been added, or a reference to word(s) not translated. In 2 Thessalonians 2:3, the KJV Translators failed to translate the definite article -the- preceding the Greek word for ―apostasy in the Textus Receptus. ―The apostasy refers to a specific event at a specific point in time—the great apostasy of the Church from the faith of Jesus Christ prior to the Tribulation period. Only the Coverdale Bible and the New King James Version (NKJV) translated the definite article ―the - which is in the Greek text. Bible versions which fail to translate the definite article in 2 Thessalonians 2:3, diminish the magnitude of the end time apostasy, thereby facilitating false teachings which limit the end time apostasy to the ecumenical movement. Some modern versions (NIV, RSV, NLT, CEV, Good News) mistranslate ―apostasia as rebellion, which changes the falling away from the Word of God to a revolt against man‘s authority.”
These Textus Receptus promoters are wrong on several counts, but at least they have some kind of a definite standard you can pin them down on. What they are totally missing is the FACT that there is no such thing as “the” Textus Receptus. There are about 25 different varieties of the TR and they all differ from each other textually.
And “the” TR they are upholding as their “final authority” didn’t even exist until 1894 when Scrivener back translated the King James Bible into the Greek textual readings they followed, be it Erasmus, Stephanus or Beza. Usually is was the Greek text of Beza.
So these TR guys are putting the cart in front of the horse.
There WAS no exact “the” TR they are using, until AFTER the King James Bible was finished. They have to somehow believe that the TR the King James Bible translators ended up with was right, but their translation of it was wrong. When in fact it was the English translation that determined what was to be these KJB critic’s “the TR”.
Secondly, like most Bible agnostics and unbelievers in the inerrancy of ANY Bible these KJB critics confuse the Word of God (the Lord Jesus Christ) with “the word of God” - his written revelation.
See my article Don't Confuse "the Word of God" with "the word of God"
http://brandplucked.webs.com/wordofgodwordofgod.htm
They say: “…which changes the falling away from the Word of God to a revolt against man‘s authority.”
The Word of God is the Lord Jesus Christ; it is not the written word of God which is the only source God has given us that tells us who the Word of God is, what he taught and what he did to redeem his people.
And NOBODY, not even these KJB critics, really believes the NKJV or any Bible in any language IS the complete and inerrant words of God.
See Is the NKJV the inerrant words of God? Not a Chance!
http://brandplucked.webs.com/nkjvsameaskjb.htm
So who is it that is potentially part of this “falling away” that will happen before the glorious return of our Lord Jesus Christ? Is it the KJB critics who have NO complete and inerrant Bible to believe in themselves or to give to anybody else, or the King James Bible believers?
Thirdly, they show their ignorance when they talk about the use of the definite article and their NKJV. The NKJV OFTEN puts a definite article in their translation that is NOT there “in the Greek”, and they OFTEN OMIT IT in their translation when it IS there. So too do versions like the ESV, NASB, NIV, NET, Holman, etc.
Here are some examples. If we look at the NKJV in 2 Thessalonians 2 verses 1 to 14, (which is not even the whole chapter), we see that the NKJV translators did NOT translate the definite article THE when it IS in the Greek some 14 times.
And 7 times they PUT the definite article IN their translation when it is NOT in the Greek text!
Just a few of these 14 times where the definite article is IN the Greek but NOT translated by the NKJV are “shaken in THE mind”, “son of THE perdition”, “temple of THE God”, “revealed in his THE own time”, "by the spirit of THE his mouth", “working of THE Satan”, “with all THE unrighteous deception”, and “by our THE gospel”.
And the places where they ADDED the definite article THE but it is NOT in the Greek text are “according to THE working of Satan”, “beloved by THE Lord”, “God from THE beginning”, “sanctification by THE Spirit and belief in THE truth”, and “for THE obtaining of THE glory”
So, you see, they do not even follow their own artificial rules whereby the condemn the King James Bible.
Fourthly, there is no “big difference” in meaning at all between saying “for that day shall not come, except there come A falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed” and “unless THE falling away comes first”. They both mean the same thing.
These KJB critics are making a mountain out of a molehill and seeing “error” where none exists.
Not only does the King James Bible say - “except there come A FALLING AWAY first” (or, A departure) but so also do the following Bible translations.
Tyndale 1524 “a departure”, The Great Bible 1540, Matthew’s Bible 1549 " A departing", the Bishops’ Bible 1568 -“A falling away”, the Geneva bible 1587, The Beza N.T. 1599 - “A departing first”, The Bill Bible 1671 - “A falling away first”, the Whiston N.T. 1745, The Worsley N.T. 1770, The Clarke N.T. 1795, The Improved N.T. 1809, the Webster Bible 1833, The Pickering N.T. 1840 - “A falling away first”, The Commonly Received Version 1841, the Julia Smith Translation 1855, The Smith Bible 1876, Godbey N.T. 1902, The Clarke N.T. 1913, the Bible in Basic English 1961, The Word of Yah Bible 1993, the 21st Century KJV 1994, The Revised Webster Bible 1995, The Third Millennium Bible 1998, the New Simplified Bible 2003, The Revised Geneva Bible 2005, Christogenea N.T. 2009 “apostasy”, The Jubilee Bible 2010, The Hebrew Transliteration Scripture 2010, The Bond Slave Version 2012 and The Modern English Version 2014 - “For that Day will not come unless A falling away comes first”
Other Translations
Lamsa’s 1933 translation of the Syriac Peshitta - “for that day shall not come, unless it is preceded by A rebellion”
New Life Version 1969 - “For the Lord will not come again until many people turn away from God.”
The Living Bible 1971 - “first, there will be a time of great rebellion against God”
J.B. Phillips New Testament 1972 - “there arises a definite rejection of God”
God’s Word Translation 1995 - “a revolt takes place first”
Worldwide English N.T. 1998 - “Before the day of the Lord comes, many people will stop believing God.”
The Tomson N.T. 2002 - “except there come A departing first”
Conservative Bible 2010 - “That day won't come until there is A rebellion and the sinful man is shown for who he is, the son of destruction”
The Work of God’s Children Bible 2010 - “for unless there come a revolt first”
Names of God Bible 2011 - “unless a revolt takes place first”
New International Reader’s Version 2014 - “That day will not come until people rise up against God.”
The New Living Translation 2015 - “For that day will not come until there is a great rebellion against God”
The King James Bible has NO errors in it at all, and these “Textus Receptus, NKJV” folks are the ones who are wrong in attacking God’s Infallible Book and promoting an inferior bible version that not even they themselves believe is the inerrant words of God.
Side Note - Another Weird Theory - "The Departure is the Rapture"
I have run into a couple of really weird Bible correcting guys who tell us that not only is the Greek word "apostasia" incorrectly translated as "a falling away" or even "the apostasy" but they tell us that it should be translated as "the departure" and that this supposedly means "the Rapture".
How anyone could read the context of verses 1 thru 3 and come up with this goofy idea is beyond me, but some do.
Verse one refers to the "rapture" when it says: 1. "Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, AND BY OUR GATHERING TOGETHER UNTO HIM (this is the rapture), 2. That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand. 3. Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come (the coming of our Lord and our gathering together unto him) except there come A FALLING AWAY first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition."
IF the "falling away" or "the departure" is really referring to "the rapture", as these false teachers tell us, then the Scriptures here would be teaching that the day of Christ and the rapture can't occur until the rapture happens first!
Duh. False doctrines always end up making the Bible contradict itself.
The Greek word apostasia is only found twice in the N.T. The other place is in Acts 21:21 "And they are informed of thee, that thou teacheth all the Jews which are among the Gentiles TO FORSAKE Moses, saying they ought not to circumcise their children, neither to walk after the customs."
The word clearly means to abandon, to fall away from, to forsake and to leave behind something that previously was held to be true and valid.
ESV, ISV 2014, NET - "For that day will not come, unless the REBELLION comes first"
NKJV, NASB, Holman Standard 2017 - "For that day will not come unless the APOSTASY comes first"
There are several other Greek words God could have used here if he had meant to say "departure" or to move from one place to another, but they are not used here. For example: "his hour was come that he should DEPART out of this world unto the Father" (metabaino) John 13:1; "DEPART hence, and go into Judea" (metabaino) John 7:3; "Having a desire to DEPART and to be with Christ" (analuo) Philippians 1:23 or "Paul DEPARTED from Athens, and came to Corinth", "Claudius had commanded all Jews to DEPART from Rome" (korizo) Acts 18:1-2.
Acts 21:21
In Acts 21:21 the word ἀποστασία is translated as forsake.
- Acts 21:21 And they are informed of thee, that thou teachest all the Jews which are among the Gentiles to forsake Moses, saying that they ought not to circumcise their children, neither to walk after the customs.
