Bible Note: Norrie, maybe if the Puritans were still around today, they would trust the KJV because of its relative immortality and forgive it it's immorality! Any new translation has a tough go of it at first. When the modern translations first ventured to address God as You instead of Thou, stones flew for no other reason than some few purists held that You was less reverential than Thou. Scholars tell us that the Aramaic that Jesus spoke was the plain, everyday language of the people. I believe that any translation that renders, with the greatest possible fidelity to the manuscripts, God's word into the plain, everyday language that we can understand in our native tongue serves well both the reader and the Author. --Hank |
