Dave,

That's news to me; probably is news to most of you.

I have never been involved in any English translation in any capacity. I provide a (near) English equivalent word in the Interlinear chapters. It really is inferior to a dictionary, let alone a proper translation. So please do not refer to my work as a translation...you should know better. You are a translator, I am not.

Lawrence Sheets apparently based his English translation on the English cognates I have included in my Interlinear, and he also apparently constructed the translation using proper English grammar and word-order (which in many cases will differ greatly from the Interlinear found here.)

I don't know why that is news to you. This work has been ongoing for over a decade, and nothing has changed. I've never claimed to have made a translation. In fact, I have advised against it and have often criticized the idea of a translation into English by stating that I am against it....as the CoE has historically been against it.

So, there really is very little of my work in MARI....despite the fact that Andrew has stated multiple times that the "I" stands for the Yudh of my last name. I am grateful and flattered, but that was not necessary.

Secondly, the very first letter stands for Murdoch...as I understand it.

I have never been under the assumption that Andrew made his own translation from scratch. I don't know why you were, or are.

I can assure you over the last decade and more than Andrew and I have collaborated over the phone and in person on many occasions with translation work. Andrew was also instrumental at times with helping me to compare against known manuscripts....and this goes for Stephen Silver and others as well.

What you call the "Younan translation" really isn't, on multiple levels....so quit it, ok?
