Albert Barnes Commentary Colossians 2:4

"This I say, that no one may delude you with persuasiveness of speech." — Colossians 2:4 (ASV)

And this I say. Regarding the character and sufficiency of the truth revealed in Christ.

Lest any man should beguile you. Deceive you, lead you away from the truth.

With enticing words. Artful words, smooth and plausible arguments, such as those employed by the Greek sophists and rhetoricians.
