A member of the church, probably at Ephesus, who fell into the heresy of denying the true doctrine of the resurrection, and saying it had already taken place. When first mentioned, 1 Timothy 1:20 , he was excluded from the church; and when again mentioned, 2 Timothy 2:17,18 , was still exerting a pernicious influence.
