1 | "Who am I?" How important is it? | 1 Chr 17:16 | Ray | 12270 | ||
Brain teaser 2; "Who am I" prayer of David. 1 Chronicles 17:16 and 2 Samuel 7:18 record the "Who am I" prayer of David. With one small change this prayer can be shown to be a prayer to a Triune God; in the sense that the pronouns total are divisible by three. How important would that be to you or any person considering the Deity of Christ? The change that would have to be made to make the pronouns divisible by three would be to interpret 1 Chronicles 17:20 "neither is there any god besides Thee, according to all that we have heard with our ears." In order to get this result, and for ease in counting capitalized pronouns, go to your NASB. My question is, "How important is it to you?" |

Ray, NEVER change what the Bible says. Saying the pronouns are divisbile by three and relating to the Trinity is streching it, even more so if you are only using this verse. The prayer continues and I don't care to count the pronouns of the entire prayer - it is not important. David was humbling himself before the Lord and that is important ... we need to do the same. Who I am before the Lord? A servent on his knees, in worship, for I cannot get low enough before God, who has absolute rule over me. Steve |

Steve, Please don't YELL at me.:) Thanks for the response. I can only say on my defense, "How many copyrights do your favorite translations of the Bible have?" | ||||||

Inerrancy of Scripture is a major point of theology ... to die for. It sounded like you were changing the text. Unless you know what the original says and can properly translate, you have no business doing what you did. |
