oh we do get so serious sometimes, don't we... not that our faith is a
laughing matter, to be sure. And I certainly did understand that you
weren't giving me/us a comprehensive statement when you alluded to
"mistranslations"... I just wanted to offer a moderating perspective that
we put ourselves at risk by deciding something is a mistranslation if it
doesn't fit our theories/theologies (the two are sometimes
indistinguishable, aren't they?) ;)
I think someone else brought that up anyway. Hey, just remember, the
joy of the Lord is our strength (Neh 8:10)
Blessings!
