Vine's Expository Dictionary of NT Words [1]
1: Κνήθω (Strong'S #2833 — Verb — knetho — knay'-tho )
"to scratch, tickle," is used in the Passive Voice, metaphorically, of an eagerness to hear, in 2—Timothy 4:3 , lit., "itched (as to the hearing)," of those who, not enduring sound doctrine, heap to themselves teachers.
Wilson's Dictionary of Bible Types [2]
2 Timothy 4:3 (b) This refers to teachers who utter things which they know will please the people so that the people will praise them for their messages and their ministry. It probably refers in this place to teachers of false doctrines, and platitudes which please the hearers. It may mean that the people want to hear what pleases them.
King James Dictionary [3]
ITCH'ING, ppr. Having a sensation that calls for scratching.
1. Having a constant desire.
Webster's Dictionary [4]
(p. pr. & vb. n.) of Itch
