Subject: why is toiauten translated 'other' here |
Bible Note: Greetings Ray! Thanks for the clarification! :-) As best as I can determine, the meaning 'such as this' or 'like this' only occurs with the definite article. Otherwise, when it is used as an adjective without the article, it is simply translated as 'such'. Almost every source I have consulted has been puzzled by the translation of this word as 'other'. It does not appear to be a legitimate translation, but appears to be a forced interpretation. Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
