Please direct me to the associated verse in the Bible that states this.
People who take everything that they read in the Bible as absolute truth are really missing out on a lot.
The Bible was written by HUMANS as directed by God. HUMANS have a tendency to screw things up ALL of the time.
Do you REALLY want to believe EVERYTHING in the Bible EXACTLY as it is written??? Open your mind - it does not hurt one bit and you may discover Glories of God that you never imagined!
