I said other translations misinterpret mother Mary as just a YOUNG MAIDEN.
The TNIV translators have their own agenda in writing that new version ( it's called Political Correctness ).
This translation blurs the lines between male and female ( something the feminist want to do ).

***This translation blurs the lines between male and female ( something the feminist want to do ).***

Could you give me an example of where the TNIV* "blurs the lines between male and female"?

Do you even have a copy to quote from? Or are you just going on what you heard people say the TNIV* is like?

I have a copy of the full Bible in the TNIV* and I read many references specifically to male and female.

As an example, Ephesians 5:22-33 still distinguishes between the roles of husbands and wives.

1 Timothy 2 still tells us that women shall not teach or have authority over a man.

Plenty here about the tniv and its poor translation here.

This is a quote from the web site of tniv.

"Changes that clarify the meaning of language for today’s reader. For example Mary is said to be “pregnant” rather than “with child.”"

There is a change that will have the full backing of the pro abortionists.
