Read carefully.

Thanks. You're right. The word "the" following got lost in the gibberish of overblown rhetoric. The article is a stinker. Despite that, coming up with a "conservative" translation is a dumb idea.

I’m sure the aim is to come up with a more accurate translation, not a conservative one. If it is, then it’s a waste of time.

I read somewhere and my pastor confirmed that they are rewriting the NIV to be less gender specific. I’m not sure if that is the NIV Study Bible but I think so.
