Brother Question
Note the above link-the 1st comment by Albert Hembd, take particular notice of the 2nd comment.
Most evangelicals are not familiar with Hebrew/Greek; few even recall Latin verbs from a 1970's education! Most evangelicals who claim to have studied the issue of Bible translation have merely read a few (unbiased?) books;interestingly the majority who are vocal against the KJV are most familiar with the works of Dr James White and/or Carson, Kutileck, Wallace etc. or Ruckmanites and Riplinger! BUT how many evangelicals can read a Greek menu and order even a simple meal, so we rely upon?
You made some points about the TBS & your own studies, but your own studies are limited if you are not familiar with the original languages? Why do you think a Hebrew student like Albert Hembd is writing that book and why was vaticanus rejected in the Protestant Reformation yet so revered by the neo Reformed today? I await the forthcoming book and trust you will keep a look out for it and remember even brother James White is not the last word in textual matters! Look forward to your SA critique after the expected summer publication (D.V.)
