Featured Christian Standard Bible 2017

I've read about 72% so far. All of the NT.

1 Thessalonians 2:14-15 omits the "anti semetic comma."

Edited to add: And you know, you guys don't have to turn every translation thread into the Rippon and Yeshua1 Show.

 

Clear enough for you?

 

Please elaborate.

 

1 Thessalonians 2:14-15

CSB: For you, brothers and sisters, became imitators of God’s churches in Christ Jesus that are in Judea, since you have also suffered the same things from people of your own country, just as they did from the Jews who killed the Lord Jesus and the prophets and persecuted us. They displease God and are hostile to everyone,

ESV: For you, brothers, became imitators of the churches of God in Christ Jesus that are in Judea. For you suffered the same things from your own countrymen as they did from the Jews, who killed both the Lord Jesus and the prophets, and drove us out, and displease God and oppose all mankind

 

Is there supposed to a substantial difference between those two renderings? I don't get the distinction.

 

I recently ran into some people in a facebook group discussing it, which led me to some articles online.

Seems that some see the the comma (,) at the end of verse 14 as making Paul's statement condemn all Jews, while omitting the comma restricts the condemnation to the Jews actually involved in Calvary.

And still others say that Ἰουδαίων in verse 14 should already be understood as the Jewish authorities, so that the comma is unnecessary.
