neither to pay attention to myths and endless genealogies, which cause disputes, rather than God's stewardship, which is in faith--
rather than godly edifying which is in faith: Paul is saying that they could pursue these fables and genealogies for the entirety of their lives, and it would not profit them anything as far as salvation (godly edifying) is concerned. The fact remains today. No controversy, issue, or question is of much worth if, when settled completely, it has nothing to do with our soul’s salvation.
