Railing and reviling defined?

[Assaf1981]

Is it true that the definition biblically of railing is just slander? I think it's also insulting too. Pastor Anderson thinks it's just slander and nothing more.

Webster 1828:

To utter reproaches; to scoff; to use insolent and reproachful language; to reproach or censure in opprobrious terms; followed by at or against, formerly by on.

 

[Joshua]

OOF. Not a feller I’d be seeking a definition of that from, for sure.

I can think of nothing more effective to cause a child to stumble and run from the faith than what this man’s children allege, with high specificity, of true cruelty and abuse. It’s a terrible imaging of God the Father and borders on a generational curse to be born to such a family. Frankly, it’s probably the tip of a very large iceberg.
