1 | What is worship, according to the Bible? | John 4:24 | kalos | 7736 | ||
Q: "Each time the NAS mistranslates the word abad or latreuo worship, serve or service fits." A: *You* say that the NAS mistranslates? That's very interesting. Are you implying that you know more about Greek and Hebrew than all the translators of the NASB know after years of study? How did you come by your conclusion that the NAS mistranslates? Did you guess, did you intuit, did you study the original languages for 2 or 3 years? Have you EVER in your life made a formal translation from one language into another? Reading random selections from a lexicon is NOT the equivalent of 2, 3 or more years of taking courses in the Greek language. How do you know the NAS mistranslates? Did you have a dream or a vision? Is that what it says in "The Message?" Tell us, whence cometh this great learning? Even if you have taken courses in or studied Greek, this alone does not make you as qualified as the NAS translators. It takes more than a knowledge of another language to properly translate. |

2 | What is worship, according to the Bible? | John 4:24 | Searcher56 | 7746 | ||
The answer is logic. One examle is ... In Exo. 12:31, the NAS uses worship. Then the similar phase is translated abad as serve in Exodus (4:23; 7:16; 8:1, 20; 9:1, 13; 10:3, 7, 8, 11, 24, 26). It does not make sense to translate the same word differently into English. We all need to let the Bible flow and interpet itself. |
