1 | Is homosexuality actually forbidden? | Romans | Dean Graf | 11226 | ||
This is the crux of my problem. The original verses seem ambiguous, their meaning open to debate. And most of the clarifications I've been given so far seem to favor predigested interpretations over examinations of the texts themselves. I've yet to receive a translation of the original Greek which is also not agenda-driven. Debating from a stance of "This is clearly the meaning" doesn't help me because the meaning isn't that clear to me. Is somebody willing and able to examine the texts with me from a neutral stance? I appreciate it. | ||||||
2 | Is homosexuality actually forbidden? | Romans | Searcher56 | 11232 | ||
Dean Graf, The origin is very clear. In my Interlinear Bible, I see the original to be very clear. I have the Greek, an the English word on top of it. On the side I have the translation, sometimes in a different order that the Greek. But, it carrys the meaning. If not exact, very close. In this case all the passages on homosexuality say it is wrong. On online is Interlinear Bible at: http://bible.crosswalk.com/InterlinearBible/ ... copy and paste the text, then click each the Greek word to see the English word and put that word on top of the Greek. There is not always a 1:1 ratio. It is painstaking work, just ask those who study that way. This was is neutral. Steve |

Correction - This way is neutral. Also as you study the text in the context. -Study each word -Study the pharse -Study the paragraph -Study the chapter -Study the book -Study the NT or OT, as applicable -Study the whole Bible ... see how it all fits and it will be clear to you. Steve |
