Bible Note: Hello brother,

You said:
But you would say that THEY would say as did the scribes, Matthew 9:3, "And behold, some of the scribes said to themselves, "This fellow blasphemes."
Yes.

You said:
But I would say as does the NKJ, "And at once some of the scribes said within themselves, "This Man blasphemes."
If this was correct you would also have to capitalize "fellow".

(1Co 1:12) Now this I mean, that each one of you saith, I am of Paul; and I of Apollos: and I of Cephas; and I of Christ.
(1Co 1:13) Is Christ divided? was Paul crucified for you? or were ye baptized into the name of Paul?

In context they were saying that our group is better than yours. It was a vanity thing. Like today, "Well, I belong to the Baptist Church." "Well, we belong to the Church of Christ". "Well, we belong to the Full Gospel Church". In otherwords it is called PRIDE. It didn't have anything to do with a man, per say. It was a congregational thing. Thinking that one is better than the other.
And Paul was telling them, "Hey, you guys, it doesn't matter who baptized you. You were baptized into the body of Christ and He is one. Why are you causing all this strife? Is this how we should conduct ourselves? Get your act together and preach Christ only!"

NOTE: It should be noted for this forum the above mentioned churches are used here only for reference as to context of this thread and is not to be construded that there is one that is preferred over the other.

You say:
Can we divide God on the pages of Scripture and say, here he is a man, and here he is the Man?
I say in Spirit No, but in contexual transmission of thought, Yes.

Just as Pilate's change of thought about Christ:
KJV:
(Joh 19:5) .... And Pilate saith unto them, Behold, the man!
This conveys that Jesus was just like any other human.
KJV:
(Joh 19:14) .... And he saith unto the Jews, Behold, your King!
This conveys that Jesus was who He said He was.
NOTE: Personaly, I believe Pilate was then converted.

The versions of the Bible do vary and it is good to view these things.
I told you before the Living Bible reduces the virgin Mary, to just a young woman. For the phrase, "young woman" does not mean she was a virgin. Thereby taking away from the meaning that Jesus was divine.

Ray, are we trying to convert each other?
I accepted Jesus as my saviour 10/22/72.
