Bible Question (short): clarification of John 1:27 |
Question (full): Hi all, I have a question about John 1:19-27. V.19 states priests and Levites come from the Pharisees to ask some questions of John for them. Vs. 20-26 are self explanatory. But V.27 John states "...there is One that stands among you..." I have the e-sword program with every "free" Bible version it has available and every one of them pretty much uses those same words. The only one that is in any way different in its wording is the YLT and it comes off meaning the same thing. My question is this: How is verse 27 to be taken? That Yeshua is actually right there among them at that moment, that He is one of the levites or priests? Or that He is one of the Pharisees that sent the levites and priests? Or just that He is somewhere among you (meaning all the peoples in general) somewhere in some city within the region? Still learning :-) Cheri |
