Must the Scriptures be written in a ???global language????
#2
Quote:So even if Greek was the lingua franca in Yeshua???s day, is it such a stretch of the imagination that the New Testament, like the Old, would be written in a language that was (supposedly) not as wide-spread?

Heh, you seen what I was looking at didn't you Chris?

Was you there when GOD was working this plan of HIS to break from the old? No. Neither was anyone else of this day and age. How do you know that GOD didn't have the apostles translate this in greek for the very purpose of breaking from the hebrew and aramaic? Just how much did the jews anger GOD in their denial of Jesus as the messiah? To the point that they would never be keepers of the words of GOD anymore? GOD has always established the second and done away with the old, do you think that this language would be no exception?

Most people would agree that there is a semetic version behind the greek, those who were not biased either way. But, the problem is, do we accept that semetic version was the scriptures handed down as they were in the standardized peshitta? I couldn't agree with that because it has no western text influence. The peshitta looks condensed and standardized. Western text dominated the first couple of centuries. If GOD was utilizing the aramaic text, then why hasn't many texts of the original western version survived in aramaic? Why has GOD allowed this language to die off so much? Here's a rough one for a few here, why has GOD allowed the eastern churches to wither away so much if they were the torchbearers of the NT?

Look at this, if the greek is a copy from the aramaic, then where is the semetic version of the greek that the old syriac was copied from? Or the original from where the Liege manuscript was produced from? These are copies from the greek, which were copies of some semetic form. You mean that all these are just forgeries? Bezae, Washintonius, etc.? The western text that fills the quotes of all the church fathers of the 1st and 2nd century was a forgery?

yea, ok, I believe that,.....not.

What about the missing sections that make up the King James version that GOD witnesses to everyday? GOD saves souls at a rate of thousands a day with the King James bible yet it is a corruption huh? Have you told GOD this yet? Why don't you tell him Chris.
