Bible Question:  Is their any person that has ever lived, (other than Jesus) who we could say has been 100 percent accurate in his or her interpretation of Scripture.

Bible Answer:  Hi New Creature, When talking about interpretation, I think about capitalization of the pronouns of Deity, mainly. The translation is important also, but mainly for determining the number of pronouns. That is my opinion.

I don't know how many people were involved in the translation/interpretation of Jonah for the New King James version, but I would personally give it my stamp of approval for a l00 percent accurate rendering of that book.

I would think that the NASB would be easily persuaded to agree with the NKJ, also, in a future copyright. I believe that it is possible for us to agree 100 percent on the interpretation of Scripture if we all have the same perception of God.

In comparing the NKJ and the NASB look at John 1:6, Jonah 2:3 (also Psalm 42:7, NASB), and Jonah 4:2.

I think that our translators/interpreters have to be consistent in their work. See Psalm 42:7 and Jonah 2:3 for an example of this.

From the heart, Ray
