Wonder why they didn’t provide a direct translation from the mosaic?

Relying on what is written in the Book of Revelation, some Christians believe there will be a battle between good and evil at the end of the world.

Basically that is the end time belief of a goodly number of the world's religions.

So one group who view the Mosaic completely divorced from it's religious significance is upset that a religious group wants to display it in some religious context.

So every museum in the world is filled with objects that are somehow less than they could have been.

Think their panties are twisted because of this particular museum.
