    In 1 Timothy 1:10, the masculine dative plural form occurs within a sequence of people and conduct opposed to sound teaching; the APB renders the list with “liars, for perjurers.”

In the Anselm Project Bible: In 1 Timothy 1:10, the APB includes “perjurers” in a list also containing “liars.” This presents the clause's rendering rather than isolating the term mechanically.
