    Andersonville: Biblical Languages

    I am currently enrolled in the MTh in Biblical Languages, the language courses are in depth and are a lot more than just "playing in strongs", in fact you don't even use Strong's as far as I can tell. You aren't even allowed to use interlinears or computer programs until after Hebrew II,by the...

    The KJV Translators Superior Language Skills

    Personally, I really would like to the King James Version put into modern English, I have not been satisfied with the attempts like the NKJV, the MEV, or the Modern KJV though.

    The KJV Translators Superior Language Skills

    Dave I am KJV Guy, but Ph 2 is not as bad as you claim. The ESV has the sense of he didn’t see equality with God to be grasped because you don’t need to grasp what you already have. You are reading it with the common English idiom if being unable to grasp something. The text in the ESV is saying...

    Pastor Takes Out Second Loan On Home To Purchase Logos Bible Software

    I prefer E-sword. I use it all the time and have benefited greatly from it. I have Parsed Hebrew Interlinear and a Parsed Greek Interlinear, over 30 commentaries, around 6 different Lexicons, around 8 different dictionaries and other stuff I have forgotten, and 99 percent of it was free, I think...

    1 Corinthians 7:36 Greek experts please view

    That seems to make more sense. a friend of mine suspects the word "virgin" is actually talking about the man's virginity, he feels like it may be a personification of the man's virginity. My Greek is not sufficient enough for me to really understand the grammar and construction of the verse.

    1 Corinthians 7:36 Greek experts please view

    1 Corinthians 7:36 But if any man think that he behaveth himself uncomely toward his virgin, if she pass the flower of her age, and need so require, let him do what he will, he sinneth not: let them marry. So, I have been looking at this passage and studying whether or not a father has...

    Sixteen Years and Done!

    so do you actually do the translation work yourself? or do you train nationals in Hebrew and Greek and have them do it? I know one missionary in Uganda, he was working on a translation, but he had the nationals doing the primary translation work, he taught them Greek, he would have them...

    Marriage Relations during "her sickness"

    you are making trying to make both passages the same but they are not. Leviticus 15 has clear language being about ceremonial uncleanness, Leviticus 20 is not. So let me ask you a question, are you telling me God accidentally put a command about having relations during the woman's sickness in...

    Marriage Relations during "her sickness"

    What does it mean that the marriage bed is undefiled (Hebrews 13:4)? "The marriage bed is to be kept pure or undefiled. In other words, the sexual intimacy shared between a husband and wife is to be reserved for that couple alone. God created the sexual union to be between a husband and a wife...

    Marriage Relations during "her sickness"

    the problem is, this particular verse is not in the context of ceremonial laws, it's smack in the middle of a bunch of what are clearly moral laws. So the question would be how can you claim that it's ceremonial? Why are you assuming it's not part of the "all these things" of vs 23. I also...

    Marriage Relations during "her sickness"

    a while back I was reading in Leviticus: 20:18 And if a man shall lie with a woman having her sickness, and shall uncover her nakedness; he hath discovered her fountain, and she hath uncovered the fountain of her blood: and both of them shall be cut off from among their people. My thought...

    African Christianity surges

    I hear you brother, I just began working on ThM in Biblical Languages through Andersonville Theological Seminary. I am hoping in the future to perhaps do some translation work, or at least train some nationals to do it. I'd do love to chat with you sometime about the philosophy of the foreign...

    African Christianity surges

    Having been to Uganda a few times, and knowing personally several missionaries in Africa, and doing a lot of studying of the world's people groups, most of the "Christians" in Africa are just Christian in name. There is a ton of Roman Catholicism and Anglicanism in Africa, as well as a lot of...

    Does The Lord Create Evil?

    The prophecy in isaiah I believe is directed toward Zoroastrianism. God was refuting that religion years before Cyrus or Zoroastrianism even existed.

    Is it against the Bible to bow to a dead person in his/her coffin to show respect to him/her?

    In guessing however that the bowing to the dead done in China is in fact being done in that culture for worship. But the. Again idk.

    The KJV Translators Superior Language Skills

    McClure has some interesting comments on those who might attempt to compete with the work of the KING JAMES BIBLE translators. He wrote: "And what has not been done by the most able and best qualified divines, is not likely to be done by obscure pedagogues, broken-down parsons, and sectaries of...

    Background of John Bois. (1) First, John Bois was carefully taught by his father. That is a good thing, isn't it? Fathers should teach more things to their children instead of leaving it up to the schools or Sunday School teacher. Talk about a child prodigy-- at the age of five years he had...
