A very wise decision, one that I have similarly learned as well. :) ... Thank you for your thoughtful analysis on the Michal-Merab controversy. A very interesting read.

It is quite amazing what can be learned from the apparatus of modern critical Greek texts about the selectivity applied to the Greek texts that underlie all modern translations of the NT. I've not spent nearly as much time with a critical edition of the LXX, but it was an interesting exercise that I found fascinating.
If no one takes anything away from my posts on these subjects, I hope that it is an appreciation for how textual criticism stacks the theological deck in one direction or another -- before the work of translation even begins.
