The word of God means nothing to these people...Their fabrications and fairy tales are just as good, or better than anything found in the scripture...

How much more clear can it get??? The covering for his face and head was a separate piece of material...There was no shroud...

Even more tragic is the inability of some to distinguish between what a text actually says and the subsequent inherent limitations on possible meanings and what they think it says or what they want it to say because they don't read carefully enough, are using historically defective texts, are ignorant of the background of what the text says, letting their own uninformed mental imagery substitute for meaning (sort of like judges who see meanings emanating from penumbras of text).

So the KJV translators of the Masoretic and Received Texts didn't understand the limitations of what they were translating and were ignorant of the background of the texts...AND your Catholic translators of the Alexandrian Texts were guilty of the same failures to recognize the limitations, including good ole Jerome, eh???

But NOW, you guys got it right...Finally...

Well good...Make us up a first time ever completely accurate translation of the scriptures into English...You obviously have the means, and apparently have the knowledge...I can hardly wait...
