Bible Note: Hi Doc Trinsograce, I appreciate your question to me that led me to start this thread. Your time and work is also appreciated. Your search was done in the KJV, and you wrote that you did "not find the Greek word (Strong's G3739) translated as "He" anywhere in the KJV." Of course you realize that a capitalized "He" will not be found in the KJV. And at this stage, I would not see the translation team having a new copyright with every "who" and "whom" capitalized, let alone the "he" and "him" occurances in their KJV. 1) When we look at other versions we see the "In whom" #3739 with "In Him" as the translation. Ephesians 1:7, NKJ, before us being an example. 2) I would encourage you to read my post to Tim in this thread and tell me if that made any sense to you. The idea of oneness is reflected in my mind when looking at the #3739 of Colossians 2:3, "in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge." I believe that these things have been spoken of and discussed before as evidenced by the variant readings in manuscripts of Colossians 2:2. 3) I have to put my head on a pillow now for I have been struggling with a low grade fever for the past week. I am in a new series of chemo therapy. You might pray for me and I for you, as you have alluded to being busy in school studies. From the heart, Ray |
