Subject: Why not use Yahweh for LORD? |
Bible Note: Hello JMSCOTT Can I prove Paul used kurios instead of yhwh? No more than you can prove he used yhwh instead of kurios. We've never seen the original documents. We have to rely on the faithfulness of those who copied the documents. Can I prove that Paul wrote in Greek? Probably. It was the most universal language at the time. Greece was in power before Rome, and the language was in common usage to communicate between cities and nations. It was ideally suited for the spread of the gospel. The earliest Greek copies of the New Testament are from the 2nd and 3rd centuries. Translations and the Dark Ages had nothing to do with it. As for the arguments on this forum, it's evident that there are many who do not listen to the Holy Spirit's teaching. Steve |
