2 Timothy 4:4

4:4 And they will turn away from hearing the truth, but on the other hand they will turn aside to myths.

2 Timothy 4:10

4:10 For Demas deserted me, since he loved the present age, and he went to Thessalonica. Crescens went to Galatia and Titus to Dalmatia.

sn These myths were legendary tales characteristic of the false teachers in Ephesus and Crete. See parallels in 1 Tim 1:4; 4:7; and Titus 1:14.

tn Grk “having loved.”
