NASB | 2 Thessalonians 2:2 that you not be quickly shaken from your composure or be disturbed either by a spirit or a message or a letter as if from us, to the effect that the day of the Lord has come. |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | 2 Thessalonians 2:2 not to be quickly unsettled or alarmed either by a [so-called prophetic revelation of a] spirit or a message or a letter [alleged to be] from us, to the effect that the day of the Lord has [already] come. |
Bible Question: I have just read an article by Dr. Kenneth Wuest on II Thess.2:2 concerning "Day of the Lord". I noticed in the received text the Greek has "Day of Christ" and in the revised text "Day of the Lord". Dr. Wuest says that the better texts have "Day of the Lord". What Greek texts are being refered to as better and why? |
Bible Answer: Greetings TP! I just looked up 2 Thess. 2:2 in my Greek apparatus and it does not even list a variant reading for the verse. It simply reads 'day of the Lord'. This means that the textual evidence is so overwhelming for this reading that the committee did not feel the need to even list any variant readings. I hope this helps!
