Bible Note: Dear Ray, I apologize for not getting back with you sooner, but as always, I've been busy on the Forum. Time to sit down and enjoy a nice chat with Ray! :) That was an excellent and thoughtful study!! I have indeed looked up the passages that you have cited and paid special attention to the word "besides".. As I was looking through them, being guided by your study above, I was wondering to myself, "Have you found any places in Scripture in which the following word after the article(usually God, One or You) is not capitalized?" If we could find such an occurrence, then maybe that would help us to better explain why the translators chose to capitalize where they did following such articles as "besides You".. I will look diligently and I will let you know if I come up with anything as I do an extensive, extended search throughout the translations that we have chosen to use.. Keep up the excellent studies, my friend! :) Your Brother in Christ, Nolan |
