Common sense,Thinkerman,COMMON SENSE!!!

Depends. If the bible was translated today again using the Oxford dictionary, one could very well translate Judas saying "Do'h!". It is a word in English today, and perhaps it would serve as the best translation of the greek word.

For example, many of the words used in the King James Version likely did not exists 5-600 years before.

If William the Conquerer had commissioned an English Bible, it would have been intellegable to us.

You could publish an Ebonic bible if you wanted.

My point is you said God made all languages. I asked exactly how he made these recent words.

Or, if you don't like "fo schnizzle", how exactly did he make the words of the King James Bible, since most of them did not exist a thousand years ago.

:smt035 Have you ever honestly thought about researching how
we got our bibles. Words came from God. What man added to words
is his problem. The scribes wrote the bible exactly as it was suppose
to be written. You can invent words all you like,but most words in
general can be traced back to a source. God knows every language
and he knows what we mean by our words,and he knows our motives
and why we say what we say.
I know this may be hard for you to accept,but why not invest some
serious quality time in researching these things. The fiction section
won't be of any help to you however.
