Your lying about your identity doesn't help yours.

Again, you are simply repeating the words someone chose to substitute. Find an original Hebrew text and search for Adon or Adonai.

In any event, the most literal translation of the English word "Lord" will not come up with any word, Hebrew, Greek, or Aramaic, that means anything approaching the meaning of the feudal word "Lord" as that term was substituted in the KJV. Not even Adon, which is not the right word, means the same thing as "Lord."

Can you not read my name "Andrewc" at the top of the profile page? Did you not get there by either clicking on "Andrewc" in a post or by entering it into the search box? I put those names of banned posters as a reminder and homage. You are very "liberal" with your name-calling and groundless accusations but short on evidence.

Frankly, you are making a laughingstock out of yourself when you challenge evidence with nothing but your own words. I have given you links to the Blue-letter Bible and you give nothing but your lousy thoughts. Now here is another Hebrew Bible with the same words. The first is the tetragrammaton and the second is adon.

Finally, you are pretty arrogant to place yourself above about 400 years of scholarship that use "lord" as a translation of adon. What are we to expect, a lugsoul version of the Bible?
