Subject: Translating 'Tradition' |
Bible Note: Hello Steve, I understand that tradition pertains to a body of teaching that is handed down/over to someone else. It can be either positive or negative. Good definition. The 'conspiracy' is that some Protestant Bibles are not following concordance in translating 'paradosis'. So the Bible student using the NIV would not be able to do a legitimate Bible search on the word tradition. He would only find examples of tradition being bad. Where 'PARADOSIS' is good such as 2 Thess 2:15, only when it is 'good tradition' do these dodgy Bibles not render the Greek word paradosis as tradition. This is a theological agenda, they refuse to have a positive reference to Tradition in their translations. |
