      XPost: alt.bible, alt.religion.christian.biblestudy, alt.religion.christianity       XPost: alt.religion.christian.roman-catholic, alt.christnet.christianlife              Friend james got all in a frensy defending the jw vatican "impailement on       tourture stake" from the jw vatican's nwt "transslation". That was over       the understanding of upright "pole" in the greek NT as the greek word to       mean a roman cross as 2nd century christian greek authors described the       upright structure as a "pole" with crossbr. So, can friend james apply the       same wooden logic to the hebrew "red sea" for us when applied to Moses       "crossing"? Hours of searching the nw vatican "library" will now ensue.       Their crack hebrew scholars must have something; oh dear; we forgot they       have *NO* scholars of greekor hebrew; so the "right" answer will be direct       from the divine no doubt in a flash of "new light"?              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
