Revelation 2:6 > The Deeds of the Nicolaitanes

2:6 But this thou hast, that thou hatest the deeds of the Nicolaitanes, which I also hate.

---

But this thou hast,

• ​this = the following attribute
• ​thou = the church (or individual member)
  

that thou hatest the deeds of the Nicolaitanes,

• ​hatest = rejects, abhors, refuses to tolerate
• deeds = behaviors, lifestyle, religious practices
  
• ​Nicolaitanes = 
  

which I also hate.

• ​I = Jesus Christ
• ​hate = reject, abhor, will not tolerate
• ^ Note: Christ hates the deeds of the Nicolaitanes, not the they, the individulas, themselves.
• To love God is also to hate evil! (text)
• ^ That is "hate" as an action - to do something about it, resist it, work against it - by doing good.
