2 Timothy 2:23
כג רְחַק מִשְּׁאֵלוֹת אֱוִילִיּוֹת וְנִבְעָרוֹת; אַתָּה יוֹדֵעַ שֶׁהֵן גּוֹרְמוֹת מְרִיבוֹת.
2 Timothy 2:23
2:23 But refuse foolish and ignorant speculations, knowing that they produce quarrels. (NASB)
In 2 Timothy 2:23, Paul advises against engaging in debates over matters that are trivial and lack substance, recognizing that such discussions can lead to conflicts and divisions. He emphasizes the importance of focusing on meaningful and edifying conversations that contribute positively to the Torah community. The Torah emphasizes the importance of wisdom and discernment. For example, Proverbs 14:7 advises, “Leave the presence of a fool, for there you do not meet words of knowledge.” This suggests a similar sentiment to Paul’s teaching, where engaging with foolish talk is discouraged in favor of seeking and sharing true wisdom. The Torah highlights the value of discerning conversation and the avoidance of disputes that arise from baseless or unproductive discussions.
