I don’t care about the prots translations of the Bible. They been doing it to their whim ever since Luther.

It's not a "prot" translation.

The Greek is the Greek.

We haven't even gotten into the context of the sentence yet.

Roman Catholics have goofed up this translation just as they did Genesis 3:15 which has lead to so much false theology.

At first Jerome worked from the Greek Old Testament, the Septuagint. But then he established a precedent for all good translators: the Old Testament would have to be translated from the original Hebrew. In his quest for accuracy, Jerome consulted Jewish rabbis.

Roman Catholiciism is ‘a nother religion’; it is not Christianiy but it is Mariology and Magicsteeringthem traditions.
