Wesley's Explanatory Notes - 1 Timothy 1:6

From which some having swerved have turned aside unto vain jangling;From which — Love and a good conscience.Some are turned aside — An affectation of high and extensive knowledge sets a man at the greatest distance from faith, and all sense of divine things.To vain jangling — And of all vanities, none are more vain than dry, empty disputes on the things of God. read more

Whedon's Commentary on the Bible - 1 Timothy 1:6

6. Having swerved The Greek, missing the mark, as an archer. They undertook to hit the mark, the end, but were induced by the seductions of the fables and genealogies to waver and miss. Jangling This word, in which the sense is indicated by the sound, is suitably selected by our translators for a word not belonging to classic Greek, used by St. Paul to express contempt of the fables and genealogies with which the errorists were befooling themselves. read more

Daniel Whedon

Whedon's Commentary on the Bible - 1 Timothy 1:7

7. Teachers of the law The Mosaic law; the Old Testament. These teachers wanted to transform the Churches into rabbinical schools, in which themselves should be the rabbies, and the teachings should be the new fangled fantasies of which Grotius gives us specimens above. What they say Their words and phrases really often express no meaning, because they have no understanding of the subject whereof they affirm. That is, they explained an unintelligible subject by unmeaning words. read more
