  • The title is perhaps a little dramatic, but the simple fact is that there are places where the KJV translators did not follow the Masoretic Hebrew text they had in front of them-including Psalm 22:16, which I'll discuss in this episode with my friend Peter Goeman of Shepherd's Theological Seminary.

    Being a person of OCD, through the years I’ve been almost paralyzed in my Bible reading/studying by trying to find the “best,” “most perfect” translation. Mark, you have helped *immensely*!! I’m gradually becoming more comfortable when I heard you say in one of your videos, “the best translation is the one that communicates to you - the one you will read.” The Holy Spirit will speak. Thank you so much!

    Using "jot and tittle" for translation is out of context. Jesus said no jot and tittle of the law will pass away. In context he is saying God's requirements are not voided, only that Jesus has satisfied them. It is concerning when things are taken out of context and applied to some form of legalistic without any discussion.

  • @jamesbarksdale978

    Interesting discussion. Thanks guys!

    The 1752 Challoner Revision of the Douay-Rheims Bible reads "For many dogs have encompassed me: the council of the malignant hath besieged me. They have dug my hands and feet." (Psalm 21.17 - LXX numbering)

    Thank you so much for educating those of us who follow your videos! This is so interesting! Note that Robert Alter, in his The Hebrew Bible, translates this "they bound my hands and feet," and remarks in a footnote that "[t]he received Hebrew text - literally 'like a lion my hands and feet' - makes no sense. The translation adopts one proposed emendation - reading karkhu, 'they bound,' for ka'ari, 'like a lion' - though there is admittedly no ancient textual warrant for this reading." So even this renowned Jewish scholar rejects the Masoretic text on this point.

  • @PaulKruse-dd2xw

    thanks for touching on Old Testament textual criticism! it's an important area of relevance to our understanding of Scripture today, yet it's often overshadowed by textual criticism of the New Testament.

  • @MAMoreno

    I'm sure that the "preserved Masoretic text" will prove to be the same as the "preserved Textus Receptus" of Scrivener. In other words, it will be the Bomberg text except where the KJV departs from it. Ultimately, "perfect preservation" in word always seems to mean "perfect restoration c. 1611" in fact.

  • @BrendaBoykin-qz5dj

    Thank you, Gentlemen.🌹⭐🌹⭐ I was surprised,when reading my Jewish Study Bible (non-Messianic),to take note of this GIGANTIC difference. I was immediately comforted by looking in other Evangelical translations at verses 1 and 18. So our Evangelical translations points 3 times to the Messiah. The verse that hits me is verse 18. So in a discussion with a Jewish believer, I would say,friend,with all due respect, I STILL see the Messiah.🌹⭐🌹⭐
