Wesley's New Testament and that if any one takes away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God will take from him his share in the Tree of Life and in the holy city--the things described in this book. The point of my answer is that in Revelation 22:19 the editors of the NASB, NIV and 11 other translations of the Bible chose the reading "tree of life" rather than "the book of life." In these 13 translations "How does God take away his part out of the book of life?" becomes a moot question. |

Hi: Could it be that being taken out of the book of life has the effect of not being able to take part in the tree of life, both of which are required in order to have everlasting life. This line of thinking means all translations basically say the same thing. Are you suggesting that the translations you listed are not saying the same thing, and that some are in fact wrong to use book of life instead of tree of life? SIncerely Henry and Emmy. |
