Bible Question:
I was reading Mark 9:29 in NASB and it states "And He said to them, "This kind cannot come out by anything but prayer." I was then looking at KJV Bible and it says same thing except at the end "prayer and fasting." The KJV adds the word fasting. I went to my greek bible and it shows a word for fasting. I am just curious which version would be right with the translation. Does anyone have any insight? thanks, |
Bible Answer: Hello beana21, I don't think you got a good answer on this. It depends on the manuscripts given the greatest weight. Some have the words "and fasting" and others do not. So when assembling a Greek NT or a current translation, the editors must weigh the evidence addressed by textual criticism in order to determine if certain words are to be in the Bible. Steve |
