Now, please note, when you have studied 20 years of high-level Biblical and classical Greek and other related scholastics such as the rabbinics of Kimchi and Rashi, you will still be light-years behind the world-class translators. Men who were living and breathing and speaking the classical and semitic languages in Oxford and Cambridge. However I doubt that you would, from a position of some knowledge rather than as an amateur Bible corrector, then try to raise the type of gnat-style know-little critique that you pick up from other know-little Bible correctors here.

FSSL, you need to try to get to the root of your Bible-correcting syndrome. The malaise is spiritual, it is simply a symptom, a manifestation, of man's desire to be out from under the direct authority of the word of God. And it manifests in strange incapabilities like actually thinking that the Bible really says "strain out a gnat" and not "strait at a gnat".

Shalom,
