Bible Note: Hi Tim, I agree with you in this. The structure is different in the two passages. Plus there is the variant reading of "him" instead of "himself" in the NU text which lends credence to the "He who was born of God keeps him" interpretation. So I would go with the NASB for both passages. 1) Looking at the 1 John 3:9ff passage again, however, would you go with another variant reading for verse 16. Green's Literal Translation for this verse is, "By this we have known the love of God, because that (One) laid down His life on behalf of us; and on behalf of the brothers we ought to lay down (our) lives." Here we see the love "of God". From the heart, Ray |
