Thanks, Rob. Doesn't "come" indicate that from the writers point of view that the people are moving in his direction, while "go" indicates the movement is away or not towards his present location? I believe the same company of the king's revisers constructed the renderings of both passages.

OK. But how can it be both at the same time? The passages and contexts are (virtually) identical in Isaiah and Micah. Shouldn't it be either "come" or "go" in both quotations of this oracle?

Micah 4:1-4 above in red, Isaiah 2:2-4 in green below But in the last days it shall come to pass, And it shall come to pass in the last days, that the mountain of the house of the LORD that the mountain of the LORD'S house shall be established in the top of the mountains, shall be...

Dr. David Jeremiah is releasing a NKJV study Bible very soon.

Hmmm, makahiya117 is banned on 10/2 and coincidentally prophet joins the next day.

He actually stuck around longer than I thought he would.

No, not any particular one; but yes, all the ones I have read have impacted my spiritual growth (all 30 NTs and counting).

How does this quote have relate to the other quotes in the OP? He could have said this about many things. What was the context of this quote? This quote by itself has no meaning.

What does this quote have to do with Scripture?

So, you quoted "Dr. Gail Riplinger" (is she really a Dr.?) as an expert or authority. No one is claiming the RV, ASV, BASV or NIV are perfect. She claimed the Bishops' was as perfect as the KJV, and since the two texts are quite different, that cannot be true.

Luke 19:4 -- And he ranne before, and climed vp into a sycomore tree to see him, for he was to passe that way. (AV1611) And he ran before, and clymed vp into a wylde fygge tree, to see hym: for he was to come that way. (Bishops') ______________ Acts 27:13, 14 -- And when the south wind blew...

John, what percentage of Japanese read English?

I agree that an understanding the chronology of the books can be valuable. For example, recognizing that James probably predates Romans gives the reader a different perspective. However, most Bibles marketed now as "chronological" are communicating that the text has been organized by the order...

All (virtually) Bibles, including KJVs, base the order of the books on the order found in the LXX. I prefer the Hebrew order as found in the Tanakh.

No, not exactly. The critical text that the MV was translated from would likely have had "in/at Ephesus" in the apparatus (a technical footnote that acknowledges the existence of a significant variant). Translators may choose to follow the main text or a variant from the apparatus at any given...

Very nice effort, John. Of course, this comparison of Greek-to-Greek does not shed any light upon how the English of the KJV compares to the MVs (which was the essence of the OP question) In fact, Scrivener's TR is not exactly the same as the TR used in 1611; and MVs have followed various...

A couple of quick observations -- The word "counting" is not in the original Hebrew, but is an added word by the translation team (it is therefore italicized in the actual KJV text). I notice that "preserve" and "forever" are also the first and last word of Psalm 16 in the NASB. What does that...

I can appreciate where you are going with your line of inquiry. Factually, neither the KJV nor any other translation has been made from over 5,000 manuscripts; they are made from a few printed critical (collated) texts. Additionally, it is not technically possible to meaningfully state that any...

sacred SA'CRED, a. [L. sacer, sacred, holy, cursed, damnable. We here see the connection between sacredness and secrecy. The sense is removed or separated from that which is common, vulgar, polluted, or open, public; and accursed is separated from society or the privileges of citizens...

Some words have fallen into disuse; and the signification of others, in current popular use, is not the same now as it was when they were introduced into the version. The effect of these changes is, that some words are not understood by common readers, who have no access to commentaries, and who...
