Look at the sources you quoted, for instance. The usual cut and paste CD commentaries. Wow, thanks for stretching yourself by looking at an ancient source! LOL! Did you even try?

Oh boy. You asked for commentaries that showed that there were disputes about the verse because you didn't believe that there was. I posted, not one, but three sources from reputable biblical commentaries (and there are many more)and then your response is to belittle me and my sources.

I'm done with you so feel free to get in the last word.

“Oh boy. You asked for commentaries that showed that there were disputes about the verse because you didn't believe that there was.”

No. This is exactly what I asked for: “Post the variety of opinion (from reputable scholars and commentators please).”
You didn’t post anything from reputable sources. Adam Clarke? Robert Jamieson? Albert Barnes? Notice, all of these are Protestant sources from more than a century ago. All three go out of there way to avoid anything even remotely Catholic sounding in their interpretations. How reputable could that be? The fact that these men are so commonly used among Protestants does not make them reputable. How about the Early Church Fathers?

“I posted, not one, but three sources from reputable biblical commentaries (and there are many more)and then your response is to belittle me and my sources.”

Because your sources are not that reputable. They are merely sectarian.

“I'm done with you so feel free to get in the last word.”
Yeah, you’re done alright.

Do you have evidence from BEFORE the Protestant Revolution of the sixteenth century that the Church was NOT commonly viewed as the pillar and foundation of the truth?
