In 1 Timothy 1:4, the dative plural feminine form modifies genealogies in the instruction not to pay attention to myths and genealogies. The APB renders the clause "myths and endless genealogies," then says that these furnish speculations rather than the management of God that is in faith.
In the Anselm Project Bible: In 1 Timothy 1:4, the APB presents the clause as "myths and endless genealogies." This identifies the clause's presentation rather than isolating a precise English equivalent.
