@JosephH40363704 @martyrian_slave @LowerLeavell Sorry bro there is no hope for you

May God have mercy on your soul

[dre @drewdavidh]

@JosephH40363704 @martyrian_slave @LowerLeavell LOL, and you called *me* thick-headed

Google it, it's famous

[dre @drewdavidh]

@JosephH40363704 @martyrian_slave @LowerLeavell I don't think you're ready for that information champ

[dre @drewdavidh]

@JosephH40363704 @martyrian_slave @LowerLeavell Yeah, you need a little help too

Ok, I don't think you're actually going to get this unless I spell it out for you

There is no difference at all between using an anachronistic Latin word and an anachronistic word like steel

Translators often introduce anachronisms into the text to make familiar and relatable to readers

To use a simpler example, one of the earliest translations of the Bible says Adam and Eve made "breeches" out of fig leaves in the garden of Eden

Breeches are an article of clothing that was not invented until the 1500s

That doesn't mean the translators are liars, they are just using words that will be familiar and relatable to the reader

@JosephH40363704 @martyrian_slave @LowerLeavell Wait, so you're telling me a translator can introduce historically inaccurate words into a translation? Why would they do that? Liars?

[dre @drewdavidh]

@martyrian_slave @JosephH40363704 @LowerLeavell Isaiah never wrote the Latin word Lucifer in 800 B.C. Israel, no

[dre @drewdavidh]

Yes, the copies of copies are very old, that doesn't make them original

You still don't get it. Translators often introduce historically inaccurate words in order to make a translation more familiar and relatable to readers

This is why the KJV mentions "Lucifer" and the BoM mentions horses and steel

[dre @drewdavidh]

@JosephH40363704 @martyrian_slave @LowerLeavell None of those are original sources either, just copies of copies

[dre @drewdavidh]

@martyrian_slave @JosephH40363704 @LowerLeavell That's the question you have to answer

You're the one who thinks that translations cannot mention things that did not exist in the time/place they were written, remember?

Otherwise it's lying

[dre @drewdavidh]

@JosephH40363704 @martyrian_slave @LowerLeavell Ok then why is it a "lie" when the Book of Mormon uses Greek or Latin terms the same way?

[dre @drewdavidh]

@LowerLeavell You're welcome

[dre @drewdavidh]

@martyrian_slave @JosephH40363704 @LowerLeavell The meaning that Isaiah wrote in Latin occasionally

[dre @drewdavidh]

@polysophical I heard they believe in a form of eternal marriage

[dre @drewdavidh]

@martyrian_slave @JosephH40363704 @LowerLeavell So the KJV translators are liars?

[dre @drewdavidh]

@martyrian_slave @JosephH40363704 @LowerLeavell Are you seriously telling me that translations can mention things that did not exist at the time and place of the original writing???

[dre @drewdavidh]

@JosephH40363704 @martyrian_slave @LowerLeavell So is it a lie when the KJV Bible has Isaiah the Hebrew prophet saying the Latin word "Lucifer" because Latin did not exist in Israel at the time of his writing?

[dre @drewdavidh]

@LowerLeavell Everything

You have said not one single correct thing in this whole thread

[dre @drewdavidh]

@CerebralCereal0 @DezGoth Probably schizophrenic

The kids aren't even phased, lol

[dre @drewdavidh]

@LowerLeavell That's a really roundabout way of saying "I made it up"

And you accuse *me* of bearing false witness?
