1 | How important is God's Name? | Matt 6:9 | Morant61 | 143258 | ||
Greetings Doc! Apparently! ;-) I do read Greek and I checked four different versions, 'autos' was not in any of them in v. 7. One of the versions was a majority text. Two of the versions were Textus Receptus, and the last one was Nestle Aland's 26th edition. As I mentioned to Ray, I did find one version of the TR that did include it on another program. None of my sources even list it as a possible variant reading, so I'm guessing that the textual support must be very slim. p.s. - Why is it that even when I was agreeing with the overall point of your post that I get sarcasm in response? :-( Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |

Hi, brother Tim... So you don't see the any pronoun there at all? How does the Greek indicate possession for "name" in your resources? At www.crosswalk.com the KJV with Strong numbers shows "autos" for that verse. Searching for Strong's 846 shows 3 John 1:7. I can find it in an interlineary based on the Scrivener 1894 Textus Receptus. I don't read Greek, and I have to admit that I'm not much of a student of textual criticism. is there a way to determine the reason for inclusion of this word in the Scrivener text and not in the other sources you mention? In Him, Doc PS Sarcasm is intended to wound -- that is presuming on my intentions, brother. Cordiality is the summum bonum of contemporary society. On the other hand, irony and hyperbole are valuable and venerable mechanisms for effective communication. (Pro 26:16, Is 56:10, Mat 23:24, etc. etc. etc.) But, hey... I think I made my point. I promise to leave off! :-) |

Greetings Doc! I have noticed at Crosswalk, and some programs as well, that the definite article sometimes shows us as the pronoun 'autos'. It isn't, but there appears to be some glitch. In this case though, I do have some manuscripts that include 'autos' in v. 7. My copy of Scrivener's in from 1881. I have been having a real problem tracking down any textual evidence for it. As I said, it isn't even listed as a possible variant in any of my sources. Usually, a difference like this would result from the majority of texts including 'autos' while some of the older ones did not. But, my majority text doesn't include it either. So, and this is just a guess on my part, I think that Scrivener may have added it to his text sometime after 1881, probably on the basis on very little textual evidence (if any). I'll see if I can dig up any more definitive answer! :-) Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |

Thank you, brother Tim... Is Scrivener an inferior source? Or is asking that question opening a can of worms? If it helps in, the word "autos" wsa in bold in the interlineary. However, I can't seem to find what that may mean. Maybe it simply means, "Hey, I'm adding this on the basis of very little textual evidence." :-) In Him, Doc |

Greetings Doc! I would only say that it was 'inferior' in the sense that He did not have very many manuscripts with which to work in that day! I know that the text that KJV was based upon was derived from only about 7 or 8 manuscripts. Today, we have literally thousands of manuscripts from which to work. I don't know what the 'bold' in your interlinear means! :) Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
