SEEING YOU

 

 

YOU walked into and

out of my dream last night,

 

Seeing you (dream or no)

is a big delight.

 

Please, friend, let us BOTH

live holy in His sight,

 

THEN enjoy God and each other

in endless light. 

– eab, 4/9/13

Translation Trouble – Mat 19.9

 

AV “And I say unto you, Whosoever shall put away his wife, except it be for fornication, and shall marry another, committeth adultery, and whoso marrieth her which is put away doth commit adultery.”

 NIV  I tell you that anyone who divorces his wife, except for marital unfaithfulness, and marries another woman commits adultery.”

 

The NIV changes the meaning by turning

“fornication” (pre-marital sex and/or perversion)

into “marital unfaithfulness” (adultery/illicit sexual

relationships after marriage).  These are NOT the

same.  The NIV also leaves out the last part of the

verse: “and whoso marrieth her which is put away

doth commit adultery.”  (Time after time “adultery”

is directly linked to a new “marriage” in the AV.)

Divorce and remarriage are said to be as prevalent

inside the church as out – this is a fairly new

development.  Does its increase relate to

“translations” which are easier on this sin?
