No. He spoke through prophets who were not all just Hebrew-speaking.

Uh, this is the first I heard that God's word was in written in another language, aside from Hebrew. I always thought the "Biblical Scholars" were in agreement that the Old Testament was written in Hebrew (except for a very small portion of Daniel)and that it was divinely given to the Jews.

A simple-minded person, who has trouble grasping simple concepts, should avoid gloating about their mastery of a subject they know nothing about.

You’ve come on this thread lambasting people and the Bible itself from a position of complete and total ignorance. And the ignorance might be excusable if you had the humility to admit you were ignorant. But no, you boast. You berate. You blast away.

How dare you call all modern English translations of the scriptures “perversions?”

Some are and some are not, but you do not know the difference. Yet that does not keep you from foolishly lashing out.

Take the time to read the preface to the KJV by the translators. The very same foolish, ungodly attacks you’ve made right here on this thread, are the same ones the opponents of the KJV translators encountered during their early translations and revisions. Yes, they made revisions. That’s because they are translators, not prophets or oracles. Yet you mock the efforts by men who have dedicated their lives to provide the scriptures into the common language of people, TODAY.

Your hypocrisy and ignorance would be laughable if they were not so tremendously offensive and damaging to the cause of Christ.

Show some fear of God and respect for His Word.

It is wearisome to deal with someone who does not bother to read, research, study, or listen. Just thoughtless responses and expecting other people to do a jig for you. But not so much as a thanks for doing the heavy lifting that you will not bother to do for yourself.

If you really are a seeker of truth and care for the Word of God, then take some time to study and learn about the topic you are debating. Otherwise, listen and learn something rather than mocking those things which are beyond your immediate knowledge.
