Bible Note: Hi, Ray. I hope you enjoy your copy of the book "Eats, Shoots and Leaves" as much as I have mine. ..... While it's true that new versions of Scripture come out with every new moon it seems, and the debate about manuscripts is ongoing still, this does not mean that God wrote multiple versions of His word, or that He changed His mind over the years, or that He issues updates and revisions in order to remain relevant or be trendy. I have in my library two or three versions of Chaucer's "Canterbury Tales." One is in the original Chaucer, while the others are attempts to modernize the now-dated language of Chaucer. Yet what Chaucer actually wrote -- what came from his pen -- has not changed and never will. In like manner, neither has Scripture. When I referred to the word of God in my post, I was not referring to the latest _version_ of it to hit the market. I assumed that my point was clear enough, but perhaps it wasn't. --Hank |
