Bible Question:
Rom 5:11 And not only so, but we also joy in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom we have now received the atonement. Can there be a "doctrine of atonement?" Many of our translations use "reconciliation" but Textus Receptus in the Greek uses "atonement" (katallagay') Ken |
Bible Answer: Let's read Romans 5:11 in its context, along with verse 10. NASB Romans 5:10-11 For if while we were enemies we were reconciled to God through the death of His Son, much more, having been reconciled, we shall be saved by His life. And not only this, but we also exult in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received the reconciliation.* *"reconciliation" from the Greek "katallage", Strong's Number: 2643 NASB Word Usage - Total: 4 "Katallage", Strong's #2643, is translated as "reconciliation" 4 out of 4 times in the NASB Whether in the KJV or the NASB, the Greek word is the same -- "katallage", Strong's #2643 |
