Contextual Overview
6 Him who is without blame, and is [fn] the husband of one wife, and who hath believing children, who are not vicious nor addicted to intemperance. 7 For a presbyter is bound to be without blame, as the steward of Aloha; he shall not be led by the will of self, nor be irascible, nor a transgressor over wine, neither shall his hand be hasty to strike, nor shall he be a lover of sordid gains. 8 But he shall be a lover of guests, and a lover of the good, and be chaste, and equitable, and holy, and withholding himself from lusts; 9 and careful over the doctrine of the word of faith, that he may be able also to comfort by his teaching the healthy, and to reprove those who are contentious. 10 For there are many who are not in subjection, and whose words are vain, and make the minds of men to err, especially those of the circumcision, 11 those, whose mouths it behoves to stop. Many houses they destroy, and teach what they ought not, for the sake of filthy gain. 12 One of them, a prophet of their own, hath said, The sons of Kreta are always liars, evil beasts, and lazy bellies. 13 And true is this testimony. Wherefore reprove them severely, that they may be sound in the faith, 14 nor cast themselves to the fables of the Jihudoyee, and to the mandates of men who hate the truth. 15 For every thing is pure to the pure; but to those who are polluted and unfaithful nothing is pure; but their understanding and their conscience are polluted.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Not giving heed to Jewish fables,.... Concerning God himself, the angels, and the creation of man; concerning the giving of the law at Mount Sinai; concerning the Messiah and his earthly kingdom, and the feast that will be made for the righteous in his days, which will consist of flesh, fish, and fowl, Behemoth, Leviathan, and Zuz, and of wine kept in the grape from the foundation of the world; and concerning the rolling of the dead through the caverns of the earth at the resurrection, with a multitude of other things which were traditionally received.
And commandments of men: the traditions of the elders, which the Jews charged the disciples of Christ with the transgression of; and he, on the other hand, very justly reproached them with breaking the commands of God, by attending to them, Matthew 15:1. These were the laws and traditions of the fathers, which the Apostle Paul was brought up in, and was zealous of, before his conversion, Acts 22:3 and which these judaizing preachers and professors, he here has respect to, were fond of, though they were made by men,
that turn from the truth; or "hate it", as the Syriac version renders it; who were enemies unto it, as Hillell and Shammai, the heads of the traditional doctors, and as the Jews, and their Rabbins in general were; and therefore their commandments, of all men, should not be given heed to, by those that bear the Christian name.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Not giving heed to Jewish fables ... - See the notes at 1 Timothy 1:4.
And commandments of men that turn from the truth - Notes, Matthew 15:3-5.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 14. Not giving heed to Jewish fables — See on 1 Timothy 1:4; 1 Timothy 4:7.
Commandments of men — The injunctions of the scribes and Pharisees, which they added to the law of God.
That turn from the truth. — For such persons made the word of God of none effect by their traditions. Sometimes the verb αποστρεφομαι signifies to be averse from, slight, or despise. So, here, the persons in question despised the truth, and taught others to do the same.
