Greetings Melanie! I learned along time ago to use my Word Processor on any of my longer posts! ;-) I too have lost my work on several occasions. Excellent answer! I never did like the translation in the KJV of 'help meet'. I have previously posted the following comments: *********************************************** "Helpmeet" is the KJV translation of 'ezeer'. This word is used 21 times in the OT, all but a couple are in reference to the strength of God. Therefore, Walter Kaiser, Jr. has purposed the following translation of Gen. 2:18 - "I will make a power corresponding to man." This even makes sense of the context, where Adam is naming the animals and is unable (Gen. 2:20) to find a "power" corresponding to him. The word never referred to an inferior, but always to someone of equal or greater power who is able to help. ************************************************* Personally, this is how I think all men should view their wives! :-) If you would like to read my take on some of Paul's teachings, type "13446" into the quick search box. I look forward to interacting with you more in the future. Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |

As a woman I came to be comfortable with the term "helper" along time ago. When the only other times I could find that term used in the Bible it was referring to God or the Holy Spirit, I figured Woman was in excellent company! Going to read your other post now. Do you know what a Godsend you are? Melanie |
