Reformer Joe, are you being serious or sarcastic with your statement below: "A lot of the changes are defended by their efforts to "make clearer" the doctrine that is found in Scripture. Since theology is subject to interpretation from the text itself, wouldn't it be wiser to be as faithful as possible to the original Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek and let the church itself be occupied with the proper interpretation of the text?" My guess is you don't want any translations of the Bible for the unwashed masses. But you could be also using sarcasm very effectively to make a great point for the opposite viewpoint. Wish I had thought of it. (Sorry for my minor nastiness but it reflects my reaction to your statement,not you. I've learned a lot from many of your posts in the archieves. Even the saved/not saved stuff was good, until it got personal) God Bless you |

You wrote: "My guess is you don't want any translations of the Bible for the unwashed masses." Your guess would be wrong. Since I am one of the "unwashed masses" myself, I really appreciate those Bible translations that do not sacrifice accuracy for what their translators claim to be "clarity." One does not need to dumb down Scripture. --Joe! |
