Bible Question (short): What's up with the italics in vs. 23? |
Question (full): Does anyone out there see what I see? What is up with the italics bit? The quesion posed in vs. 22,23 is an open, hypothetical question. It is not closed with an answer. Why did the NASB folks close it? No other translation does this. The difference between "And He did so to make known..." and "And what if He thus purposes to make known..." is HUGE!!! Why hasn't anyone questioned this so far? Whitewave |
