Bible Note: "Paul clearly states either "or" or "and" between "regards to eating and drinking" AND "in respect to festivals, etc.". That is a first clue that he did not mean people were not to be judged only for the "eating and drinking" that was done on certain days." " The first "n" [eta] of Col. 2:16 should be translated as "either" according to the following lexicons and Greek dictionary: Liddell and Scott,1 Bauer, Arndt and Gingrich,2 Woodhouse,3 Dana and Mantey,4 Thayer,5 and the Barclay-Newman Greek Dictionary (BibleWorks 4.0). To date, the only translation that I know of that has translated the Greek that way is the Nazarene Standard English Version by Daniel Gregg." found at http://biblestudy.iwarp.com/colossians/216b.html |
