That’s nice. But Paul did not write in Latin. He was not a native of Italy and Greek was the almost universal language of educated men in those days.
Pilate wrote “king of the Jews” in Hebrew, Greek and Latin the learned jews of the day would’ve known Latin; do you think Pilate would have known Aramaic or Hebrew? He would have used Latin or Greek to speak with the Jewish leaders!....Paul was educated and had most assuredly a working knowledge of Greek, Hebrew,Aramaic, and Latin.(Paul was a Roman citizen for Heaven’s sake!) He was also a tent maker and had to conduct business in the languages of the day! We aren’t sure what languages he wrote his letters in, though they were probably in Greek in the main! Paul’s letter to the Romans may have been Latin or Greek!
That’s true. I learned that on a trip to Rome. I was on a walking tour of Palatine Hill. The tour guide said Caesar would not have said E tu, Brute. Because that is Latin and educated, upper class people spoke Greek back then. I didn’t know that until 2006. But if you know Latin, Spanish, and Italian like I do, and you hear some Greek, you can figure out what they are saying very often. But you have to listen VERY carefully and really concentrate.
You are badly misfiring. The question was the origin of the term “rapture.” When someone just tried to tell you that it came from a Latin TRANSLATION of the original language, you replied Paul didn’t speak Latin. What are you missing?
Lol
Paul didn't write in Latin, but the Catholics did--specifically to hide the liberating truth of God's Word from the masses so they could be enslaved by the hierarchical priestcraft and mysticism of the early Catholic Church.
An attack on God's Word--coming from a Catholic 'father' is really ironic considering the history of the Catholic Church.
Read Charles Spurgeon's Morning and Evening devotionals and you will get a flavor of how the Catholic church was perceived in 19th Century England. Spurgeon regularly referred to them as 'Papists".
What an utterly useless jibe, from someone claiming to be of the same religion as the one who first translated the Greek text into Latin, giving satan the name Lucifer.
