Evil-speaking

1 definition found

From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:

  Evil-speaking
     is expressly forbidden (Titus 3:2; James 4:11), and severe
     punishments are denounced against it (1 Cor. 5:11; 6:10). It is
     spoken of also with abhorrence (Ps. 15:3; Prov. 18:6, 7), and is
     foreign to the whole Christian character and the example of
     Christ.
