Puritan Board Freshman
Hi all,
My wife had a question from a student: If Rev 22:18-19 says not to add or take away from scripture, how can Bible translations be justified?
My response relates to every tongue confessing, peoples of different nations being evangelized, but those seem like cursory arguments that don't speak specifically about scripture.
Chapter 1 of the WCF gives scripture proofs for translating in vulgar languages, but they don't answer why it is allowable.
Thoughts?
