- "Neither give heed to fables and endless genealogies." If we follow this advice we would ignore
most of the Bible -- especially the genealogies found in Gen 10,
1 Chr 1-9, Mt 1, and Lk 3. 1:4
- "Refuse ... old wives' fables." What about old husbands' fables? Old Bible fables? 4:7
- "The love of money is the root of all evil." 6:10
- "Charge them that are rich in this world, that they be ... ready to distribute." 6:17-18
