Of course it is. It's hard to believe that you've been participating on this forum as long as you have and have somehow concluded that this is not a debate. Besides, there's nothing wrong with debate. It's how we learn other viewpoints.
You're asking for the "correct" meaning of death.
No. I'm asking for the "correct interpretation" of the word "die" in Genesis 2:17. Please go back and read wallcrawlr's post that led to that question, and the question itself.
Why would you accept some anonymous person on the internet as an authority?
Huh? Why do you converse on this site? Maybe because you enjoy it and learn from it? How novel.
Now go back and read both wallcrawlr's posts and my posts (which also include clarifications of my question due to inartfulness on my part in initially phrasing it).
I'm asking wallcrawlr to defend his assertion that there is only one "correct interpretation" of the Bible by providing the "correct interpretation" of Genesis 2:16-17. He may indeed provide what he believes to be a "correct interpretation" (and it may indeed be an interpretation with which I presently agree). Or he may understand that there are, in fact, a great many persuasive interpretations, revealing the notion that there is a singular "correct interpretation" to be the chimera it is (which, of course, is precisely why we continue to study the Bible and don't presume that our past readings have revealed all).
Sorry. I was still trying to figure out what you meant in 186 & missed the later references to Genesis. To debate death is pretty pointless.
Concerning Gen 2:17 there is a correct interpretation.
