[206:5] Acts vi. 5.  Others conceive, however, that the name Nicolaitanes is merely equivalent to Balaamites (as Balaam in Hebrew is nearly equivalent to Nicolas in Greek, each word signifying Ruler, or Conqueror of the people), and that the apostle does not here refer to any party already known by this designation, but to all who, like Balaam, were seducers of God’s people.  See Neander, “General History,” ii. 159.  Edinburgh edition, 1847.
