Kirith Arba was the home city of the Anakanites (sons of Anak) who were huge men. (Caleb of the 12 spies wiped them out and renamed the city Hebron and gave it to the Levites as a city of refuge for one of bloodguilt) There was a satellite city (as discovered from archeologists) for the Sons...

I'm not the one who blew up the issue into gargantuan proportions. And the TJ Bible I was referring to was his own, hand written and transcribed copy of the scriptures. Not the printed one you have posted a picture of.

Do you even know what the topic of this thread is? Wanna discuss any of that? (Unless you are a one subject idiot who can't discuss anything else but your beloved and warped view of the KJV....as if God has NOT preserved his scriptures for the world today)

Well.... A summary statement would be nice. From some somewhat recently discovered sources.... The depictions of crucifixion where the legs are straight is something of a misnomer. The legs were really bent at the knees....making the pushing up to breath painful. (Like leg day at the gym)...

Calvinism was popular because of the "glosses" or notes in the Geneva Bible....and the subsequent ESV translation that was a popular English translation. And no...what you have claimed about Thomas Jefferson is untrue. You really need to study history properly from ACCURATE sources. (Side...

Then there the Bible used by Benjamin Franklin....(Bishop's Bible) Then there's Thomas Jefferson's Bible. Which actually was what was common....in order to get a degree of higher learning you first had to get a seminary degree, part of which was translating your own Bible into English from...

I wrote it...because it accurately reflects the historical record. It's not spitting on the translation. The KJV existed for 100 years before the marketing campaign of the1920's here in America made it popular. It was used of course...but it wasn't really that popular. Here's something...

You have me confused with someone else. There's only a few "new" translations that "I spit on". None have been mentioned.

You quoted Stephen in Acts. What does verse 56-57 say? Let's get the WHOLE context of his words. And compare to what Jesus told the Cheif Priests and Elders. (Sitting vs standing) Because the context here is important and only slightly shifts the position you are holding. There's also...

I don't hate the KJV. (It was my first Bible) I only know it's accurate place in history...the relevant reasons why... Matthew 19 being a cheif reason. And it really was not popular until a massive marketing campaign of the 1920's. Until then the Old ESV was popular. Many of the old...

I did not respond because it's not relevant information or to the purpose of this thread. I can't help someone uninterested in history and has a particular agenda's axe to grind. The truth is the truth. It doesn't grow or expand the way your information does.

So far... 2 false accusations with no substance behind them... Anything else?

Obviously I struck a nerve.... I have no faith in my flesh...but like the book of James said faith without works is dead. And if Jesus returns while I'm still working for him....wouldn't that be better than be caught sucking my thumb claiming to be the keeper of all knowledge as "Jesus likes...

Shhhhh Adults were talking and you interrupted.... Take your Bible and go back into the corner....k?

Actually... The Gospel of John is a study of theology if done completely. It destroys all notions of gnosticism and calvinism completely. So....just a thought with all that going on rattling about in their heads I would recommend the Book of James. Comes right after Hebrews. James is a...

It seems that EVERY nutjob, buffoon, and self-appointed prophet has an opinion on Revelation and is overly eager to share their opinion on the letter. And every last one of these idiots tell us that if we don't believe their version of interpretation we are definitely going to burn in hell...

There were some stats I heard once about remarriage. Like only 36% are considered successful with the second wife and smaller percentages with each successive spouse. (Liz Taylor) Remarriage is a sticky subject. When choosing a spouse if you sucked at it the first time what drastic life...

I didn't say that the KJV is wrong. Just that some of the other arts and sciences need to be brought in as well. Jesus had a VERY defined style and manner of answering the religious elites questions in front of audiences. Ones that usually set their heads spinning. But also keep in...

I was saying that Henry commissioned the Anglican Church...not the KJV. Sorry if I caused confusion. Henry VIII commissioned the Great Bible by Miles Coverdale. Even though Miles mostly stole the work of Wycliffe and Erasmus. Even the Coverdale Bible was a repeat of stealing those two...

I didn't ever say (and neither do scriptures despite Henry the 8th's desires) that God was ever or has ever been in favor of divorce. And the translators still got some grief over their work despite their King's desires and their acquiescence to him as much as possible. Do you know how it...
