Bible Question:
Take the choice of the flock. Also pile FUEL BONES under it, Make it boil well, And let the cuts simmer in it.” (New King James Version) Take the choicest one of the flock; pile the LOGS under it; boil it well; seethe also its bones in it. (ESV) take the pick of the flock. Pile WOOD beneath it for the bones; bring it to a boil and cook the bones in it. (NIV) Take the choicest of the flock, And also pile WOOD under the pot. Make it boil vigorously. Also seethe its bones in it." (NASB) Take the choicest of the flock and burn also the UNUSED BONES under it, and make it boil well and seethe its bones in [the pot]. (Amp) Where were the bones actually placed, beneath the flesh inside the pot or used as fuel under the pot? V10 looks like to me that the bones were put inside the pot but beneath the flesh. So, which translation is more acceptalbe? Thanks and Shalom Azure |
Bible Answer: Shalom Azure, Eze 24:5 Take the choice of the flock, and pile also the bones under it; make it boil well, that the bones thereof may also be seethed in the midst of it. (JPS) Eze 24:5 “Take the choice of the flock, also pile bones under it, cook it thoroughly, also let the bones cook in it.” The Scriptures Ezek. 24:5 "Put in it pieces of meat, all the best parts - the thigh,the shoulder; fill it with the choiest cuts, taken from the pick of the flock, and pile the bones underneath. Bring it to a rolling boil, till it's all cooked, even the bones." CJB Looks like you had it figured out, sister Azure, and it seems the Amplified is the closest to the three I've shared with you. It seems these 3 translations agree with you and the Amp.- the JPS (Jewish Publication Society) is the English translation of the Jews' Scriptures, The Scriptures is the whole (Old and New but I'm not sure if the translator is Jewish born or not) and CJB (Complete Jewish Bible) is the whole Bible translated by a Jewish believer in Messiah :-) (For myself, when an Old Testament verse or thought seems hard to understand I sometimes, though not always, can find it more easily understood when I check the JPS.) Hope this helped Cheri |
