Hebrews and Greek Scripture NWT

Kophagangelos

I would know more to check the Hebrews Scripture of NWT. And I have found also 50 errors in the Greek Scripure of NWT. I need more scripure - about 100 Hebrews and 100 Greek Scriputres. Who knows about this? For me it is important to compare with the Interlinear Translation! Thank you!

Kophagangelos

It is urgently! I searched and found not!

The wrong translated word in the Hebrews Scriptures in the NWT! Can you show the scriptures of the Hebrews Word!

Because I want to show the elders that it is much error in the NWT! They must know that I am conviced to do right! And not a apostate in their eyes! If it is a possiblity to save some elders!

This might be of some help. It is a JW ran group HOWEVER, this board is mainly for people of other religions (scholarly type) to counteract an argument made by witnesses regarding the Greek and at times Hebrew language. What you can do is type in either the scripture or word you think you have found error in and read the argument of the JW and an argument from a person of another faith or just a scholarly person. You can tell easily the witnesses from the non-witnesses. There are some brilliant people on there. The good thing is you can see both sides. There are tons of references there so you can buy the source and show the elder first hand if it's that important to you. Here is the link http://groups.yahoo.com/group/greektheology/messages

Ok! Thank you! I will look it! I hope I will find enough proof!

You can tell them what Professor Jason BeDuhn (who is quoted in The Watchtower - 1 February 1998, p. 32,) wrote me in the following letter (I'm just adding the main point):

Dear Mr. Bonanno,

Thank you for your message. I get many inquiries such as yours, and I do my best to answer each one....You are right to raise questions about the use of "Jehovah" in the NWT New Testament. The Greek word in nearly all of the passages where the NWT NT has "Jehovah" is, as you say, KYRIOS, which means "lord." It would be most accurate to translate "Lord" in those passages. This is a case where I disagree with the choice made by the NWT translators. The JWs have a theory that the divine name was expunged from the writings of the New Testament when Christianity was trying to win over non-Jewish converts who had no appreciation for the Jewish name for God. They may or may not be right about
that, but the current state of evidence does not prove their claim. There are a few dozen passages where the New Testament is quoting Old Testament passages where "Jehovah" (or "Yahweh" or however it was pronounced) is used, and one could make an argument that in those passages it would be reasonable to present the original wording, including "Jehovah." But that still leaves well
over a hundred uses of "Jehovah" in the NWT that should be reconsidered in future editions....

best wishes,
Jason BeDuhn
