Dave,

All translators make mistakes.

The two that you are referring to made a very simple mistake. The angel was talking to Yosef - when translating, they thought they saw a verb in the 2nd-person masculine - because the conversation was between the angel and Yosef. See? Very easy mistake to make. 2nd-person masculine and 3rd-person feminine are conjugated the exact same way - and both have the spelling [font=Estrangelo (V1.1)]0rqt[/font]

See? I explained thoroughly enough to where even you should understand the grammar behind it.

Now get over it - you're wrong and so were they. If Lamsa was here right now and I pointed this out to him, he would agree with me and revise his translation.

I make mistakes in translating, too. When they are pointed out to me (by someone who actually knows what they're talking about), I make the corrections and move on.

But that doesn't mean that I need to defend myself or my Aramaic skills to someone who can't even speak a word of the language. I'll debate you in Aramaic, if you would even understand what I'm saying.

You are not even at the student level - so please take your "elect" attitude elsewhere!

Sheesh!
