As I urged you when I went into Macedonia, stay there in Ephesus so that you may command certain men not to teach false doctrines any longer nor to devote themselves to myths and endless genealogies. These promote controversies rather than God's work—which is by faith.
Paul also mentioned this in Titus:
But avoid foolish controversies and genealogies and arguments and quarrels about the law, because these are unprofitable and useless.
The SDA Commentary suggests that Paul was cautioning against the common practice among the Jews to attempt to trace their ancestry back to "a Davidic or priestly heritage." It further states that "Much of Jewish teaching and preaching was based on finely spun allegories that pleased the fancies of the people without feeding their souls." - Seventh-day Adventist Bible Commentary, Volume 7, pg 288.
In other words, he was cautioning against the belief that salvation was a matter of lineage, and therefore, the Sons of Abraham did not need to repent. John the Baptist also cautioned them against this in Matthew 3:9:
And do not think you can say to yourselves, 'We have Abraham as our father.' I tell you that out of these stones God can raise up children for Abraham.
