I’ll go ahead and take the . . . translations . . . of scholars in my past. I knew more about their scholarship at the time.
DADDY is fitting and plenty Biblical, for me.
Besides . . . DADDY is the God Almighty so wonderfully described in ANGELS ON ASSIGNMENT which was such a redemptive, drawing-me-closer-to God sort of book when I first read it and the 2nd time I read it as well.
But, hey, I realize you have interesting agendas about . . . other’s perspectives that are different from yours. Carry on, if you dare, as you persistently do.
I don't have an agenda. As I used to say when I was in the military: my pay is the same. What motivates me is desire for truth. If you wish to call God "Daddy," that's your prerogative. But when someone decides to make up a story that "Ab" means "Dad" and "Abba" means "Daddy" (and Dr. Eckleburg is exhilarated to "learn" something new form that!), I feel that something needs to be said before such a travesty becomes "official truth" by repetition.
