Me too, I'm not much of a fan of the NEB.

Philippians 2:5-8 Have the same attitude that Christ Jesus had. Though he possessed the nature of God, he did not grasp at equality with God, but laid it aside to take on the nature of a slave and become like other men. When he had assumed human form, he still further humbled himself and...

Colossians 2: 8,9 Take care that nobody exploits you through the pretensions of philosophy, guided by human tradition, following material ways of looking at things, instead of following Christ. For it is in him that all the fullness of God's nature lives embodied.

I am in favor of gender-accurate Bible translations.

The following snippet comes from The Oxford Essential Guide To Ideas And Issues Of The Bible. Targums : Robert P. Gordon "All translations of the Bible are necessarily interpretive to a degree, but the Targums in that they are interpretive as a matter of policy, and often to an extent that far...

Ephesians 1:4-8 Through him he chose us out before the creation of the world, to be consecrated and above reproach in his sight in love. He foreordained us to become his sons through Jesus Christ, in fulfilment of his generous purpose, so that we might praise the splendid blessing which he has...

They have not come up with your sinful mindlessness. None of your reckless accusations are true. You have come up with zilch for proof. Proof must come from the text.

You post way too much. And most of the time it is utter bunk. Read, think, re-read, and arrange your feeble thoughts into some semblance of order. Goodspeed's translation has no resemblance to Peterson's stuff. Or are you so out of it that you have no idea?

I don't about your stupid links. I care about your bold-faced fabrications regarding the NIV, for which you have NEVER given proof from the text. You twist Scripture to your shame.

I have Edgar Johnson Goodspeed's New Testament which was called by the header. I have the 1948 edition and the 1951 second impression. I picked up a book by him for a quarter last month. It's called simply Paul. EJG was an accomplished scholar.On the backside of the book The York Times says...

I just named eight Bible translations that use the same name as the NIV. Why don't you start a stupid campaign against them as well?

My mindset does not allow lies to be spouted at will on a fine Bible translation. No lie can be supported if it is not in the text. Will you get that through your thick cerebellum? What you are demonstrating is a lack of integrity.

Both translations say that they "are outstanding among the apostles." And that was your major complaint.

I am calling out your history of complete falsehood regarding the NIV. Never have you produced a single text that supports your vain and sinful accusations. If it's not in the text, it doesn't exist. And you are stuck with being a twister of Scripture.

As I have told you dozens of times before, the NASBU uses the same wording as the NIV. How many times do you have to hear the same thing over and over before it clicks in your mind?

What MM said in post #34 is way beyond the pale, and then you instantly, without a thought agreed with him. May you both be clothed with shame and disgrace.

Run that past me again? I don't understand what you're trying to say.

Psalm 70 Make haste and save me, God; LORD, come quickly to my help. Let those who seek my life be discomfited and dismayed, let those who desire my hurt be turned back in disgrace; let those who cry 'Hurrah!' withdraw in their shame. But let all who seek you be jubilant and rejoice in you; and...

Some REB readings: Psalm 23 The LORD is my shepherd: I lack for nothing. He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me to water where I may rest: he revives my spirit; for his name's sake he guides me in the right paths. Even were I to walk through a valley of deepest darkness I should...
