By the way Dave, you kind of glazed over the part where I shot down your syriac hero's, didn't ya? That is not like you.
Some thoughts for you:
When Murdock made his translation, why hasn't it made inroads into the Christian community here in America? In fact, it died a very short time after his death.
How about Lamsa? Why hasn't The Lord Jesus led His sheepfold over to this particular translation if it was this "secret language" that everyone needed and had been hidden all this time from the western world? It too died shortly after his death and is held onto by a very small sect of whatnots and weirdos.
What about the latest attemp here, somewhere we have to have someone strike the heart of GOD's people here to accept this particular language, don't we? Shoot, it is the mother of all languages that spawned the greek manuscripts, or so you and others keep saying. How about mister Victor Alexander's translation? Nope, dead from the start, right from the beginning too.
What about all these 100's of translations that have came out ever since the Geneva and King James? Why don't they last?
What is happening here Dave? Is it really just a bias to the greek or scholarly concensus like some have said and hid behind before, or is it possible,......just maybe possible,...... that GOD refuses to accept it? Maybe GOD's people refuse to listen to mankind on such things also, huh?
Did you ever think that maybe those particular greek/old latin manuscripts and the 5 Waldensian bibles they used in the King James Bible translation was the closest to the originals and the fire of The Holy Spirit and the faith from those first century Apostles resides more in those words than in the syriac words? <--------(hint, hint)
But that is talking about spiritual things that are not even considered by scholars and translators when you talk about GOD's word, huh? Everyone just wants the most exact word-for-word translation, they are not even thinking about these so-called "spiritual" things.
This I do know though, GOD's people will only move when HE tells them to. So if a translation arose that was actually sanctioned by GOD, HE would move HIS people to it immediately. For once, one translation would actually be held up as the standard instead of the King James.
Those who are HIS faithful will wait upon HIM.
Enough for now.
