    What are Seventh Day Baptists?

    Don't worry about it. I only mentioned it because I didn't understand your post.

    What are Seventh Day Baptists?

    Sorry, what is Sanbatrism? I did a Google search, and all I got were results for Sabbatarianism.

    What God did on Earth's first fourth day.

    But as Adam was the first man created by God, how could Adam refill the earth? The earth had not been filled once yet: Ge 1:28 And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over...

    "Predestined According to the Purpose of Him Who Works all things According to the Counsel of His Will", Ephesians 1:11.

    But we only have to look at the next chapter of Ephesians: “And you He made alive, who were dead in trespasses and sins, in which you once walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit who now works in the sons of disobedience, among...

    I am not Reformed.

    I think that is misunderstanding what Calvinists believe. They certainly do not believe that it's a matter of having permission to come. They believe, as non-Calvinists do, that Jesus invited all who labour and are heavy-laden to come to Him, and that whoever does come to Him He will not cast...

    NKJV on Genesis 49:6

    We know that they translated out of Hebrew (Greek for the New Testament) because the title page includes these words: "THE HOLY BIBLE, Containing the Old Testament, AND THE NEW: Newly Translated out of the Original tongues: & with the former Translations diligently compared and revised, by his...

    NKJV on Genesis 49:6

    As far as I can see, and I don't know Hebrew at all, so I have to rely on concordances, etc., the Hebrew word which the 1611 translators render as "wall" here is exactly the same word as they render "ox" in the other 68 places where the word occurs. As I understand it, the 1611 translators...

    NKJV on Genesis 49:6

    Don't worry - I am always making mistakes like that.

    NKJV on Genesis 49:6

    Nothing to do with Latin. They translated from the Hebrew, and the Hebrew word which even the 1611 translators translated as "ox" or similar in 68 of the 69 places it occurs.

    NKJV on Genesis 49:6

    Like the 1611 translation, the NKJV was translated from the Hebrew and Greek. I don't know why the 1611 translators decided in that verse only to translate as "digged" and "well" word which everywhere else they translated differently. By the way, I think you meant Coverdale, not Cloverdale.

    H6301

    Thanks Shawn. It is good that we can discuss and even differ without being unpleasant to each other.

    H6301

    Yes, I asked you about opposite words, but in that case we were talking about words in New Testament Greek which (according to you) mean the opposite in English. So here we don't have it, because H6301 is a Hebrew word. So is H6031, which you now say you meant. It can mean to be afflicted or...

    NKJV on Genesis 49:6

    According to Strong's Concordance, that is the only place where (in the 1611) the Hebrew word is translated as "digged." It is also the only place where the Hebrew word is translated at "well." Elsewhere in the 1611, it is translated as ox, bullock, cow or bull. So it is not really the NKJV...

    Ribera’s commentary on the book of Revelation

    No, nor am I likely to do so, as I followed your link and find that Francisco Ribera is a Jesuit.

    was The Geneva Bible Considered superior to 1611 KJV?

    Yes, I know, that is why I wrote: "However, you are correct with 1 Chronicles 20:5." I don't think he slew on in Internet though - that didn't exist back then :)
