Bible Question (short): Do we keep His commandments? |
Question (full): The manuscripts that the various versions use have what are considered minor differences. The differences are probably no more "minor" than the differences that searchers for truth have experienced through the ages. Through the ages the Deity of Christ has been focus for the differences in believers. So it is natural that we as believers would like to see the inclusion of Acts 8:37 and 1 John 5:8 for instance in our accepted version. Right now I would like to talk about the minor difference in manuscripts of Luke 4:4. It has been pointed out on the forum that "by every word of God" has been omitted by many versions. As a "counter of pronouns" and one interested in the Deity of Christ, I see this as an important point of discussion (as it evidently was in the past with the copiers of the Scriptures). What can we learn about what the passage is saying about the Son of God by looking at the quote from Deuteronomy 8:3 as found (or not found) in Luke 4:4? Luke 4:4, NKJ, "But Jesus answered him, saying, "It is written, 'Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God.'" From the heart, Ray |
