Subject: How far would you go in a translation? |
Bible Note: Greetings Makarios! Great points! Sorry about leaving out the Holy Spirit! I was in a hurry when I wrote my post and didn't even realize that I had done so! :-( However, 'discovered' would be an acceptable literal translation of 'eurisko'. How about this wording instead, "...It was discovered that she was pregnant through the Holy Spirit"? Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
