This saying is true. Therefore rebuke them sharply, so that they will be sound in the faith and will pay no attention to Jewish myths or to the merely human commands of those who reject the truth.
Therefore rebuke them sharply
1 Timothy 5:20 But those elders who are sinning you are to reprove before everyone, so that the others may take warning.
so that they will be sound in the faith
Titus 2:2 Teach the older men to be temperate, worthy of respect, self-controlled, and sound in faith, in love and in endurance.
and will pay no attention to Jewish myths
1 Timothy 1:4 ... or to devote themselves to myths and endless genealogies. Such things promote controversial speculations rather than advancing God's work--which is by faith.
or to the merely human commands
Colossians 2:22 These rules, which have to do with things that are all destined to perish with use, are based on merely human commands and teachings.
of those who reject the truth
2 Timothy 4:4 They will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths.
