Hastings' Dictionary of the Bible [1]
Jangling . ‘Jangling,’ says Chaucer in the Parson’s Tale , ‘is whan man speketh to moche before folk, and clappeth as a mille, and taketh no kepe what he seith.’ The word is used in 1 Timothy 1:6 ‘vain jangling’ (RV [Note: Revised Version.] ‘vain talking’); and in the heading of 1 Timothy 6:1-21 ‘to avoid profane janglings,’ where it stands for ‘babblings’ in the text ( 1 Timothy 6:20 ).
Webster's Dictionary [2]
(1): ( p. pr. & vb. n.) of Jangle
(2): ( n.) Idle babbling; vain disputation.
(3): ( n.) Wrangling; altercation.

International Standard Bible Encyclopedia [5]
jan´gling ( ματαιολογία , mataiologı́a , "vain discourse" "babbling"): This word is not found in the American Standard Revised Version; once only in the King James Version ( 1 Timothy 1:6 ). The American Standard Revised Version has "vain talking," instead of "vain jangling," and evidently means proud, self-conceited talking against what God has revealed and against God Himself.
