Exegesis
The demonstrative houtos estin ho planos kai ho antichristos {οὗτός ἐστιν ὁ πλάνος καὶ ὁ ἀντίχριστος | hoû-tos es-tin ho plá-nos kaí ho an-tí-khris-tos} then definitively labels anyone fitting this description as both the deceiver and the antichrist, with the double article indicating archetypal roles.
In context — 2 John 1:7
For many deceivers have gone out into the world—those who do not confess that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh. This one is the deceiver and the antichrist .
