Jesus is not nor ever was a spirit being. Scripture explicitly calls him a man over and over and over again. This means he is flesh and blood. And could only have been resurrected as flesh and blood. If there possibly could have been any rational doubt about this, Jesus explicitly rejects the...

Well, I don’t want you to be bored with what I might post. It’s clear that we agree about some stuff but not on other things. Keeps it interesting. It must have been the poster who got it confused who brought it to light. For the record, he used the abbreviation KJB. Not sure how that is...

The question is moral - should we treat a Chinese attack on a foreign country (Taiwan) AS IF it were an attack on the US - not an evaluation of our relative military capacity.

Why limit your comparison to these 2 translations?

Rapid cultural deterioration.

Not only was, he is Jewish.

For the record, I believe the poster who pointed out the difference between egg and mallow referenced KJB, not KJV. Maybe that’s the difference.

Believe it. I cannot believe there are so many people who hold their knowledge of foreign languages as superior to translators. What I wrote was wrong. I meant to support the NWT along the lines I presented. And I corrected my mistake in the post. The claim was because NWT uses egg but the KJB...

Yes, an allegory most definitely must be a fictional story. And I think we talked about this before. From Definition of ALLEGORY allegory noun al·le·go·ry ˈa-lə-ˌgȯr-ē pluralallegories Synonyms of allegory 1 : the expression by means of symbolic fictional figures and actions of truths or...

The idea that a translated is correct when there are different senses of a word show the difficulty of translation and the limitation of a word for word thought process.

I care what the majority say and could NOT care less what the original word is in a foreign language. Honestly, this retreating into foreign languages is annoying to me. I rely on translators. I take it as a given that if many translations make it egg and others use another word like mallow...

1st, said Genesis is primarily a history book. 2nd, an allegory is a story, a fictional story - not a synonym for ‘foreshadowing Jesus.’

Except it is not true. From What is the meaning of Zaphenath-Paneah in Genesis 41:45? | GotQuestions.org The exact meaning of Zaphenath-Paneahis unknown, and there is no general agreement among scholars as to its meaning. It is thought that paneah probably refers to “life” or “support of life.”...

Right, most versions say egg - not mallow. Yes, the MSG is an extreme thought translation. It was read at a funeral service yesterday.

Sad "reading into" text whatever one wants. Genesis is primarily a history book. While there may be parallels among heroes, generally, there is no basis to suppose one hero or God's anointed was symbolic of another hero or God's anointed. Joseph and Benjamin happen to be the children from the...

Part 2 or 2 Can anything insipid be eaten without salt? Is there flavor in the white of an egg? NASB Can something tasteless be eaten without salt, Or is there any taste in the juice of an alkanet plant? NASB1995 “Can something tasteless be eaten without salt, Or is there any taste in the white...

Part 1 or 2 Most translations use the word egg. I guess you just proved another instance of KJ being inaccurate. KJ21 Can that which is unsavory be eaten without salt? Or is there any taste in the white of an egg? ASV Can that which hath no savor be eaten without salt? Or is there any taste in...

Appeal To Ignorance. Counting the lack of evidence in favor of a proposition as evidence against the proposition.

You said few about Russia, not God’s word.

Yes but Jacob's mother's intervention is akin to Isaac's mother's intervention, trying to assist God in delivering on his promise. Both with disastrous results. You say Esau is Russia. Anything bad coming from there? According to Christianity in Russia - Wikipedia, 47.1% of Russians are...
