Thayer's Greek Lexicon

Νικολαΐτης, -ov, ὁ, a follower of Nicolaus, a Nicola/itan: plur., Rev. ii. 6, 15, — a name which, it can scarcely be doubted, refers symbolically to the same persons who in vs. 14 are charged with holding τὴν διδαχὴν Βαλαάμ, i. e. after the example of Balaam, casting a stumbling-block before the church of God (Num. xxiv. 1-3) by upholding the liberty of eating things sacrificed unto idols as well as of committing fornication; for the Grk. name ΝικόAaos coincides with the Hebr. oy ace. to the interpretation of the latter which regards it as signifying destruction of the people. See in Βαλαάμ; [ef. BB. DD. 5. vv. Nicolaitans, Nicolas; also Comm. on Rev. ll. ce.].
