Footnote. There are no paragraph divisions in the Greek or Hebrew text. Matthew's Bible (1537) divided the material into chapters and paragraphs (but not verses). Grace to you, John |

So do you think that the publisher is referring to the paragraphs in the Matthew's Bible?? I had hoped that I was providing a solution to "searching answers" original question, but since I have never studied the Hebrew or Greek texts, forgive me my ignorance regarding the "paragraphs in the origianl documents" comment. |

Hi mitelt, I think you did provide a solution to the original question! We are just now adding to it. :-) Since paragraph breaks are not a part of the original text, its up to the publisher of each new edition to determine whether and where to place paragraph break. Paragraph breaks should always be considered to be a matter of interpretation rather than translation, and care should be taken to examine the text to see if separate paragraphs, and chapters and verses too, for that matter, should actually be read together as a unit. One peculiarity of the Koine Greek of the New Testament is that is was written without paragraphs, punctuation, or spaces, and used all capital letters.
