From which some having swerved have turned aside unto vain talk;
All Commentaries on 1 Timothy 1:6 Go To 1 Timothy 1
Gregory of Nyssa
AD 394
What is this vain juggling with words? Is he aware that it is God of whom he speaks, Who was in the beginning and is in the Father, nor was there any time when he was not? He knows not what he says nor what he affirms, but he endeavors, as though he were constructing the pedigree of a mere man, to apply to the Lord of all creation the language which properly belongs to our nature here below.
