What does being taught precepts of men mean in 2 Nephi 28:14?

When describing the end-time’s age of pride and wickedness he has seen in vision, Nephi asserts “they have all gone astray save it be a few, who are the humble followers of Christ; nevertheless, they are led, that in many instances they do err because they are taught by the precepts of men”
(2 Nephi 28:14). In other words, those who lead the people—the shepherds and teachers—are misleading them into false beliefs. Relying on academics—the wise and learned—for answers, they “preach false doctrines” and “pervert the right way of the Lord” (2 Nephi 28:15).
