Titus 1:12

Verse 12. One of them, a prophet of their own. [9] He does not mean a true prophet, but as the pretended prophets of Baal were called prophets. Saint Paul understands Epimenides, a poet of Crete, who by some pagan authors was thought to know things to come; but Aristotle says, he knew only things past, not to come. The ill character he gave of the Cretians was, that they were always liars, evil beasts, slothful bellies, addicted to idleness and sensual pleasures. Witham.
