AMPLIFIED 2015 | Mark 10:25 "It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man [who places his faith in wealth or status] to enter the kingdom of God." |
Bible Question (short): How does the wall theory soften? |
Question (full): The issue of historical accuracy aside, how is this theory (again, irrelevant of its truthfulness) "downgrading" or "softening" the meaning of the text? A laden or unladen camel would not have been able to pass through these supposed "eyes of the needle." |
