1 Timothy 1:4
Douay-Rheims
Not to give heed to fables and endless genealogies: which furnish questions rather than the edification of God, which is in faith.
Francis Patrick Kenrick
The moral law is directed to restrain the vicious inclinations of nature. Positive law is intended as an indirect safeguard against them. The just yield willing obedience to both, which serve for them rather as a rule than a restraint.
