1 | Has The NASB changed since 1990? | 2 Cor 5:16 | bchuffaker | 202049 | ||
In a previous question I had stated that in the NASB translation of 2 Corinthians 5:16 says: "Therefore from now on we recognize no man according to the flesh…" I was corrected by the reply and told that it says: “Therefore from now on we recognize no one according to the flesh;…” Has the translation changed since my Bible was published? My New American Standard Bible is a Hebrew-Greek Key Word Study Bible published with a © of 1990. It mentions that “Scripture taken from the New American Standard Bible, © 1960, 1962, 1963, 1968, 1971, 1972, 1973, 1975, 1977 by The Lockman Foundation.” I would like to know why my NASB Bible is different from yours. The difference being instead of “no man” yours says, “no one”. Do I have an older translation or is it because it has something to do with something else? Bruce |

2 | Does "no man" mean no human being? | 2 Cor 5:16 | bchuffaker | 202034 | ||
In the NASB translation of 2 Corintians 5:16 it says: "Therefore from now on we recognize no man according to the flesh…" As I understand it, we no longer view any human being from outward appearances. It could mean more than that, but I have a friend that seems to claims that it is only referring to "believers or Christians". That it is only the Christians that we no longer view from a worldly point view. He says I have to read what is before and after. I believe he is missing the whole point of the verse and perhaps the whole chapter. Who knows maybe I am completely wrong, but it seems to me it is saying we as Christians should no longer view any human being from a worldly point of view. Please explain how this verse was meant to be understood and feel free to elaborate on it. I appreciate this opportunity to ask this question no matter what the answer is. Thank you. Bruce |
