Vine's Expository Dictionary of NT Words [1]
1: γόης (Strong'S #1114 Noun Masculine goes go'-ace )
primarily denotes "a wailer" (goao, "to wail"); hence, from the howl in which spells were chanted, "a wizard, sorcerer, enchanter," and hence, "a juggler, cheat, impostor," rendered "impostors" in 2 Timothy 3:13 , Rv (Av, "seducers"); possibly the false teachers referred to practiced magical arts; cp. 2 Timothy 3:8 .
