NASB | 1 John 5:6 This is the One who came by water and blood, Jesus Christ; not with the water only, but with the water and with the blood. It is the Spirit who testifies, because the Spirit is the truth. |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | 1 John 5:6 This is He who came through water and blood [His baptism and death], Jesus Christ--not by the water only, but by the water and the blood. It is the [Holy] Spirit who testifies, because the Spirit is the truth. [He is the essence and origin of truth itself.] |
Bible Question (short): The one true God? |
Question (full): This is a question for the Greek scholars on the forum as I continue to study 1 John 5:6,7. I was comparing 1 John 5:6 with 1 John 5:20 today. How can we gain consistency in translation and also a true interpretation of these verses? Take note that the newest NASB translation has a change in 1 John 5:6. Any comment on that change?
