whats up with you??? HOW can getting the right meaning of what the Bible says, dumb???

Christians do say the DUMBEST things some times :eek:

You've just proven that. Thanks. It's never wrong to strive for correct interpretation. That said, many people don't have access to nor the understanding of the Greek, Hebrew and Aramaic, thus the ENGLISH Bible's necessity. Those people really don't care much about the underlying texts, especially when nobody has the autographs! Now, that's not necessarily my position, but, it is a common one.

I see you've given up on the Easter thingie, as well you should, because you've lost that "argument". Thus, you bring up something I hadn't discussed recently. But I'll play the "Septuagint" game for now.

Please compare Isaiah 42:7 & 61:1-3 from any version you like with what Jesus read aloud in the synagogue in Luke 4:16-21, & compare it with the Septuagint. While not an exact match, you should find Jesus' reading is much-closer to the S than it is to the Masoretic Text. The late Dr. Thomas Cassidy, an astute historian & former Admin. here, believed Jesus was reading from a vorlage copy of Isaiah, origin unknown.

But remember, JESUS called it "this Scripture", which makes it official, vorlage or not, Septuagint or not.

My post was the continuation of the Easter "thingie".
I will formulate my implied point this time:
If you contend that Easter is to be rejected because it is not contained in the written thoughts of the author, then you must also contend that the Septuagint renderings of the Old Testament must be rejected on the same grounds.

Easter is only an acceptable possible rendering at Acts 12:4 if it is understood to mean "the passover", which is the meaning for how the word was used in the pre-1611 English Bibles.

If Easter is advocated to mean a pagan festival or to mean a Christian celebration of the resurrection, it would be an incorrect rendering at Acts 12:4 according to the context. Herod proceeded to take a further action to please the Jews by waiting until after the Jewish passover which included the seven days of unleavened bread.

Passover is the better rendering since it does not leave open the possibility of the incorrect understandings advocated by some KJV-only advocates.
It would have to be translated based upon how those first reading it would have taken it to be meaning!

If the KJB observe Easter, wonder what Putin thinks of that?

You may say it, but you do not prove it to be true. There is historical evidence from the 1600's that indicated that the KJV translators choose to stick with the 1560 Geneva Bible's accurate rendering "the passover" at Acts 12:4, but that a Church of England prelate changed the choice of the KJV translators to Easter. You merely assume or presume that you are supposedly defending the choice of the KJV translators, but you do not prove it to be their actual choice.

It is not faithful and accurate to the context to say that king Herod who proceeded to take an additional action that would please the Jews would supposedly honor a Christian celebration of the resurrection for the Christians whom he was persecuting.
Think that this is another example where the theology of the Anglican Church overrode their translation choices!

dude, PLEASE! In verse one there is only the ONE article in the Greek with the two nouns, meaning ONE PERSON.

In verse 2 each noun has the definite article, meaning TWO PERSONS!

I thought you were Greek?
Refers to Jesus being both Great God and savior, if the Kjv knew of the Granville Sharp rule, they would have translated it as MV have!

The KJV itself affirmed that "our God and Saviour" is accurate and faithful to the Greek NT by its own rendering "our Lord and Saviour" at 2 Peter 1:11. Would KJV-only advocates suggest that the KJV is inaccurate in its rendering of 2 Peter 1:11?

At its note for 2 Peter 1:1, the Reformation Heritage KJV Study Bible noted: “Literally, ‘our God and Savior, Jesus Christ,‘ describing one divine person--the same Greek phrase appears in v. 11, but with ‘Lord” in place of ‘God.‘ Christ is Lord and God (John 1:1; 20:28; Rom. 9:5)“ (p. 1829). James Scholefield maintained that this verse has “the same construction as in verse 11” where it was rendered in the KJV as “of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ” (Hints, p. 157). A. T. Robertson wrote: “In 2 Peter 1:11 and 3:18, the pronoun ’our’ comes after ’Lord,’ but that makes no difference in the idiom. It is ’our Lord and Saviour,’ and it is so translated in the English versions. But we have precisely the same idiom in 2 Peter 1:1, ’our God and Saviour Jesus Christ’” (The Minister, p. 63). Robertson asserted: “The idiom compels the translation, ’our God and Saviour Jesus Christ” (p. 64). Concerning 2 Peter 1:1, Ralph Wardlaw noted in 1815: “An instance of construction, in every respect the same, occurs at the eleventh verse of this same chapter” (Discourses, p. 75). Wardlaw asserted: “It is just as improper to render the words in the first verse, ‘through the righteousness of God and our Saviour Jesus Christ,‘ (unless the appellations ‘God and our Saviour’ be understood as both connecting with ‘Jesus Christ’) as it would be to render those in this verse [1:11] ‘in the kingdom of the Lord and our Saviour Jesus Christ’” (p. 76).

Do KJV-only advocates oppose the same measures and principles being applied to 2 Peter 1:1 as would be applied to 2 Peter 1:11?
Very strange that the Holy Spirit did not reveal to them the future Granville Sharp rule, or else inspired them to agree with MV here!
