Bible Note: Hi Angel, I agree with what you have said, but I have to disagree with the interpretation of Scripture concerning capitalization. I would talk about the Son of Man rather than the Son of man. I would say that pronouns should agree. Thus "you call Me [sic] "Teacher" and "Lord", and rightly so." Luke 22:27 I would interpret as saying, "But I am among you as the *One who serves." I would say that He maintains His station as "Servant" rather than servant. I believe that (Lamb of God) should agree with Son of Man [sic]. Angel, again, I think your post was great, but I don't agree with the interpretations/translations that do not make the divinity of Jesus clear. So, I think that Luke 22 is stating that Jesus is the One who serves. Matthew 17 is speaking to whether the Teacher should pay the temple tax. Matthew 3 can show the dominance of Christ simply by the use of capitalization; John the baptist said, "I have need to be baptized by You, and do You come to me?" So I loved your thoughts and encourage you to keep up the good work on the forum. From the heart, Ray |
