ὕστερος G5306
Later, subsequent, belonging to a time following; contrasted with earlier or former times
This comparative adjective means 'later' in time or sequence—coming after, subsequent to an earlier point. In 1 Timothy 4:1, Paul warns that 'in later times' some will depart from the faith by following deceiving spirits. The adjective points to a future period following Paul's present, when apostasy will increase. The term is temporal, indicating sequence: what comes after the current moment, belonging to subsequent ages or generations.

1. sense 1 — In 1 Tim 4:1, Paul prophesies: 'The Spirit expressly says that in later times some will depart from the faith.' The adjective indicates times subsequent to (Spanish 'últimos,' last; French transliteration; German 'später,' later) Paul's era—the unfolding future of the church age when apostasy and false teaching will intensify. The context describes doctrines of demons and hypocritical lies that will seduce some away from sound doctrine. 'Later times' doesn't specify how much later, but signals a deterioration Paul sees coming as the age progresses. 1×
