Subject: Holy Spirit or holy spirit? |
Bible Note: Hi Searcher56, I know what you are saying in number 1 and I agree. However, since one can not throw out something that is not there in the Greek may I rephrase that for you? Even though (autos) is not in [all manuscripts] of the Greek, I would still include it in the translation. In your point 2 I did not find the numbers 10 and 119. What are you referring to by these numbers? Also, would you comment on my point 2. Are you open to the idea that the holy spirit is a witness to these things? For example, are you open to the idea that their teaching was of a holy spirit and that it filled Jerusalem? The high priest questioned them, Acts 5:28, "saying, "We gave you strict orders not to continue teaching in this name, and behold, you have filled Jerusalem with your teaching, and intend to bring this man's [NKJ, Man's] blood upon us." (I of course go with the NKJ here, for His authority and His name is as the Son of Man.) If the (Him) of verse 32 refers to the (Him) that they hung on the cross in verse 30; then I believe that we are His witnesses and so also is the holy spirit. From the heart, Ray |
