Bible Translation

Posted 03-08-2008 at 10:06 AM by jaybird0827 (Jaybird Street)

Here the reader's attention is drawn to the words of the Holy Spirit which were originally written in Hebrew and were being quoted in Greek. For these to be the words of the Holy Spirit in Greek or English, it must be a received principle
