2 Timothy 2:16 - Clarke's commentary and critical notes on the Bible

But shun profane and vain babblings: for they will increase unto more ungodliness. Shun profane and vain babblings - This is the character he gives of the preaching of the false teachers. Whatever was not agreeable to the doctrine of truth was, in the sight of God, empty and profane babbling; engendering nothing but ungodliness, and daily increasing in that.
