Easton's Bible Dictionary: M. G. Easton, M.A., D.D.

Evil-speaking

Is expressly forbidden (Tit. 3:2; Jas. 4:11), and severe punishments are denounced against it (1 Cor. 5:11, 6:10). It is spoken of also with abhorrence (Ps. 15:3; Pr. 18:6, 7), and is foreign to the whole Christian character and the example of Christ.
