Bible Note: Hello TMcCully,

Welcome to the Forum.

I noticed your user profile. Might I ask a few directed questions of your statements?

1. You said "Genesis One is supposed to teach why God is worthy, but those traditional word translations obscure the lessons which are foundational for understanding who God is.."

OK, but how did YOU determine that Genesis One is supposed to teach that God is worthy? How do you know this is what's it's "supposed to teach"? Says who?

2. How did you determine that "...traditional word translations obscure the lessons which are foundational for understanding who God is"?

According to who? To which translations do you refer? Using what hermeneutic method? How do your results line up with general Orthodoxy and/or known scholas views? Are you skilled or trained in Hebrew grammer? Strong's Concordance and the BlueLetterBible may indeed be helpful tools, but they don't make you a qualified, credible "expert"!

3. Are you a JW or associated with the Watchtower Organization in any way?

Speaking the Truth in Love,

BradK
