2 Timothy 2:23

ἀπαιδεύτους : ignorant. An ignorant question is one that arises from a misunderstanding of the matter in dispute. Misunderstandings are a fruitful source of strife. Cf. 1 Timothy 6:4.

παραιτοῦ : refuse, i.e., Such questions will be brought before you: refuse to discuss them. The A.V., avoid might mean merely, Evade the necessity of meeting them.

γεννῶσι : There is no other instance of the metaphorical use of this word in the N.T.

μάχας : in the weaker sense of contention, quarrel, as in 2 Corinthians 7:5; Titus 3:9; but not James 4:1.
