Subject: Is the Greek Interlinear correct? |
Bible Note: Hi Tim, Are you familiar with Alfred Marshall and the Interlinear that was mentioned? Can you speak to the "remoter" antecedent that was mentioned? I think that these questions of who is speaking and who is being spoken of are important as they relate to capitalization. I am interested in your points that the NIV can do no wrong in leaving it all lower case. They can do no wrong if it is not important to give God the glory when the capitalization is needed. My strong personal opinion; consider the source.:) For those who do not know me, I like the capitalizing NASB and NKJ which give us a head start in understanding a passage and leaves less to pencil in. ***I was interested also in the marginal reference in my Bible to Luke 5:10 and comparison of #222l Strong's. It points out how we can change from being in the devil's snare to catching men alive in nets ourselves for Jesus. And that comes about through knowledge of the truth that we are sinners and we all are in need of the Savior. We desire to live godly in Christ Jesus.2 Timothy 3:12,13 Later, Ray |
