Bible Question: are there errors in the bible,if so what kind are they? |
Bible Answer: Brenda, The only "errors" I have seen in the Bible..KJV..are errors in translation.Those are not to be construed as errors in what G-d is presenting us as a road map for eternal salvation. As with any human touched process there will be errors. The 66 books of the Bible were written by 40 some authors... man... over several centuries, in different languages, then translated from those language(s)to english with errors in translation. There are several examples, such as; The Greek word PNUEMA,which means spirit, was improperly translated to Ghost. So we have Holy Ghost used in Scriptures. Properly, it is Holy Spirit. While it should be the goal of each person to know all scripture, we should not loose sight of plain and clear Bible teachings of the three things we must know and accept for eternal salvation; 1)Repentance 2)Baptism 3)Then we must live a righteous life according to G-ds' commandments. It is often said that those are presented in the Bible in a manner that a ten year old can understand. You may wish to do a general search using "Errors in the Bible"...and you will have no problem in having material to read on the subject. A WORD OF CAUTION....validate before you accept findings. |
