Subject: Why would NIV say 500 cubits? |
Bible Note: Thank you for taking the time to respond to me personally as well as to my question. No one has ever commented on it before, I suppose not knowing what to make of it. As usual I was too short in my description. When the man with the reed is introduced in 40:5 the reed is stated to be 6 cubits long. I was awe struck with the temples immensity until others with the NIV made known what their version said. I go between the NKJV, NASB, and NIV and generally side with the majority. It seems as though the NIV is out on a limb this time. |
