ArchivedQustions about your bible. ...........Let me give you an example of why I don't accept the KJ as "God inspired". God inspired His truth not human bigotry. The word "sodomite" is only one Scripture where the King James translators "interpreted" God's word, they did not translate the original Hebrew. The Hebrew word "qadesh" does not mean "sodomite" it means "male temple prostitute". When I have brought this up to other KJ only people they claim "sodomite" meant "male temple prostitute" in 1611. Nice try, but wrong. Find a dictionary from the 17th century and you will find that "sodomite" means the same as found in Leviticus 18:22. What is interesting is that the femine of "qadesh" is translated "whore", which is not the same as lesbian. The KJ translators allowed their social prejudice and bigotries to interfer with a word-for-word translation of God's truth since a male temple prostitute is not necessarily a "sodomite". The New American Standard Bible translates the Hebrew without adding social commentary, which is why the NASB is my Bible of choice. |
