@MScarince@JudasMaccabeu10 Both words necessarily imply that there is indeed a subdivision of humanity into different "kinds" or "races". "All of mankind" would be an okay translation unless people began to deny that there were indeed such subdivisions.
@MScarince@JudasMaccabeu10 I am not assuming anything. Omne is pointing at genus, as they have the same case. Genus means kind or race. Omne means each, every, all/the whole. So "Omne genus" necessarily translates to "each/every kind/race".
@MScarince@JudasMaccabeu10 Strongs translates genos to "Kind, race, family, offspring, nation, kindred". Same meaning as Ethnos, which is the most commonly accepted word that is used here.
@MScarince@JudasMaccabeu10 Omne and genus are both neuter singular. So Omne refers to genus and Omne genus means "Every kind" or "Every race". Every kind or every race of what? Of mankind - hominis.
@MScarince@JudasMaccabeu10 Wrong. Hominus is genitive plural, while genus and omne are neuter singular. So "Omne" (Every) is attached to "genus", not "hominus". So it translates to "All kinds of man" or "All races of man"
@MScarince@JudasMaccabeu10 Yes they do, because the original Greek uses the word "ethnos" which translates to nation, ethnicity, or race. Obviously the english word "ethnicity" derives from the Greek word "ethnos".
@MScarince@JudasMaccabeu10 omne genus hominum
omne - all, each, every
genus - race, stock, kind, family
hominus - of men/of humans
Conclusion: Every race of humans
@MScarince@JudasMaccabeu10 Actually, why stop there? Let's look at the original vulgate which you seem to have a high opinion of
"fecitque ex uno omne genus hominum"
Can you tell me your translation of "genus" please?
@MScarince@JudasMaccabeu10 French:
“À partir d’un se ul homme, il a fait tous les peuples”
Peuples translating to nation or ethnic group. What a shock that “ethnos” translates to “ethnicity”!
@MScarince@JudasMaccabeu10 We can also look at non English languages. The standard used in Italian Mass, CEI, is as follows: “Egli creò da uno solo tutte le nazioni degli uomini”
Want to guess what “tutte le nazioni” means?
@MScarince@JudasMaccabeu10 So what? It’s used in Mass, unlike the version you are presenting (other than for translations of Tridentine).
As is ESV-CE:
