    "He punched him in the face" is another example of us still using "in" as an equivalent to "on".

      If only language was constant, consistent and logical! In English the sound of the letters and meanings of words sometimes have to be established from the context through usage, which then changes in an inconsistent fashion over time and differently around the country and world such that archaic uses of words can be preserved in an established standard figure of speech which would not work in current English if used in a different context.

    My favorite part of this video, Mark, is your obvious great care and concern for your viewer who asked the question about this verse. Your knowledge, brother, is very helpful to many of us... but it is God's love in you that is truly affecting lives. We're grateful for you, and you're in our prayers.

      The beast with 7 heads and 10 horns coming up out of the waters, multi-headed means political, singular is religious (being the anti-christ which is Satan).
      7 dominions throughout the earth, 10 kings/world leaders, the waters are the people expecting to be raptured, for it will be as in the days of Noah, those who are taken abide under God's wrath.
      False messiah comes 1st in Rev. 12 Satan and the fallen angels will be cast to earth, he is the son of perdition (perdition means to be put to death, he is the only 1 who has already been judged).
      The harlot, the woman spoken of is that great city Babylon, babel=confusion (Satan is the author of confusion), God said "to come out of her in Rev. 18:4 I think.
      It's not until the son of perdition, after the 2nd woe, on the 7th trumpet is when Jesus returns, the Lord's Day (that 1000yr period, the day John was taken to, even past where were at now), when Jesus returns the dead will rise and we will all (meaning everyone to have ever lived) be in the spirit.
      Yeshua Messiah will reign here on in the new Heaven in the earth, then at the end of that period Satan will be let loosed a little while because God is fair and everyone will have a chance and they will be tested by him and some will still even then choose to follow/worship Satan, then come the Great White Throne Judgement prior to the eternity.
      God is that consuming fire, you don't burn in Hell forever and ever, your name is blotted out, no longer existing, period, all souls return to whenst they came.
      The mark of beast in the forehead are those without the seal of God in their foreheads (meaning the truth), the mark on their hand are those doing the work of the beast, not a tattoo of 666 or a computer chip implanted.
      The 1st beast received a deadly wound on 1 of it's heads, a disagreement via the supernatural entity being Satan when he is cast out of Heaven entirely will come to solve the problem (world peace), no nations to wage war against 1 another we/they will all be as 1, a 1 world rule, under Satan (the beast system).
      The religious beast who was out of the earth (dust/physically you could say) and cast to the earth, the anti-christ isn't a man, it's Satan (looks like a lamb, spake like a dragon).
      He exercises all the powers of the 1st beast (to take advantage, coming to make peace), and when the dragon healed the wound of the 1st beast, all worshipped it (trample like cattle).
      Churches will become the harlot and whore after her, and oh how so difficult it will be to speak/preach against peace/ the wound was by the sword and it is truth, for they/ the world will hate you/us for standing on God's Word till the end.
      Satan uses men, some of the churches will do the work for him, they'll think your preaching against Jesus, our Messiah to come, for Babylon today is being revived to its fullest making way for the false to come.
      Amen.

      Blessec be to all, in Revelation 13:1, the beast with 7 heads and 10 horns coming up out of the waters, multi-headed means political, singular is religious (being the anti-christ which is Satan).
      7 dominions throughout the earth, 10 kings/world leaders, the waters are the people expecting to be raptured out of here in famous fly away doctrine, for it will be as in the days of Noah that Yeshua mentions in Matthew 24 (with there being many other references throughout the old and new testament concerning the end times, as Daniel is a overlap of Revelation, and Ezekiel speaks more on the end times then any other book in the Bible other then that great book Revelation, the unveiling/uncovering as for the entomology of the word itself), those who are taken abide under God's wrath.
      The false/spurious messiah comes 1st in Rev. 12 on this earth for a 5 month period, Satan and the fallen angels will be cast to earth (for the angels are coming back to seduce the daughters of men as they did in Genesis 6), he is the son of perdition (perdition means to be put to death, for he has already been judged).
      The harlot, the woman spoken of is that great city Babylon, babel=confusion (Satan is the author of confusion), God said "to come out of her" in Rev. 18:4 I believe, as well as He did Abraham. It's not until the son of perdition, after the 2nd woe, on the 7th trumpet is when Jesus returns, the Lord's Day (that 1000yr period in 2nd Peter 3:8, the day John was taken to in the spirit, even past where were at now), when Jesus returns the dead will rise in Christ mentioned in 1 Thessalonians 4:16-17 (where most people cling to the Rapture Theory), and we will all (meaning everyone to have ever lived who has went before us and who remain), will be in the spirit.
      Yeshua Messiah will reign here in the new Heaven in the earth, then at the end of that period Satan will be let loosed a little while because God is fair and everyone will have a chance (not meaning a do what you want now and make up for it then, pertaining to those who have been unable to hear the good news of our Lord and Savior and will be tested by Satan as even Jesus was to set the example on how we combat our enemy), and they will be tested by him and some will still even then choose to follow/worship Satan, then comes the Great White Throne Judgement prior to the eternity.
      God is that consuming fire, you don't burn and are tortured in Hell forever and ever, your name is blotted out which is the eternal punishment, no longer existing, period, all souls return to whenst they came, for Jesus Himself would say depart from Me i never knew ye.
      The mark of beast in the forehead are those without the seal of God in their foreheads (meaning the truth), the mark on their hand are those doing the work of the beast, not a tattoo of 666 or a computer chip implanted.
      The 1st beast received a deadly wound on 1 of it's heads, a disagreement or falling out (as we even experience today), via the supernatural entity being Satan when he is cast out of Heaven entirely will come to solve the problem (world peace), no nations to wage war against 1 another we/they will all be as 1, a 1 world rule, under Satan (in the beast system).
      The religious beast who was out of the earth (dust/physically you could say, not flesh for is a cherubim as serveral are mentioned throughtout scripture), and cast to the earth, the anti-christ isn't a man, it's Satan (looks like a lamb, spake like a dragon).
      He exercises all the powers of the 1st beast (to take advantage, coming to make peace), and when the dragon healed the wound of the 1st beast, and all worshipped it (trampling like cattle, moths to a flame).
      Many churches will become the harlot and whore after her, and oh how so difficult it will be to speak/preach against peace/ the wound was by the sword and it is truth, for they/ the world will hate you/us for standing on God's Word till the end.
      Satan uses men just as God does and counterfeits all God does, some of the churches will do the work for him as they are openingly displaying now the Satanic infestation that is spreading like a contagion of death, they'll think your preaching against Jesus, our Messiah to come, for Babylon today is being revived to its fullest making the way and craving the path in blood for the false to come, so many will be deceived that you personally hold so near and dear to your heart.
      Amen.

    Matthew 6.10, "Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth as it is in heaven."
    Most of the time, when I hear people recite the Lord's Prayer, it's "thy will be done ON earth as it is in heaven," which is how the verse appears in the ESV, NKJV, NASB, NIV, &c. "In earth," sounds like a petition that God's will may be done in your garden.

    Mark, You are greatly appreciated from a perspective you may not have yet realized; I came to Jesus in 2017, so not that long ago. When someone , like myself starts the journey of reading His word daily, and just can't get enough; it becomes apparent from those who have been Christians for decades, their opinions on which bible translations to use and not use. As a newer believer you look up to the mature Christian's thoughts on these matters; yet they all seem to differ.
    So , that leaves some of us newer believers second guessing ourselves as to whether I am using the right bible, or not.
    You bring much clarity and peace of mind to those like myself who can just read God's word and be confident in the translation that we use. I am so glad I stumbled upon your channel; thank you very much.

      I agree! Although I do watch the Super Bowl every year, I generally find the halftime shows to be extravagant and unimpressive. From what little I know and have seen of past Super Bowl halftime shows, I think they were way better in the 80s and early 90s. Then one of them (a winter-themed one with ice skating) bombed so badly that many viewers flipped over to In Living Color while it was on, and from then on they began making a point of only having big-name singers and bands do it. Such a shame.

    I remember as a kid, having another kid try to explain to me that some Bibles teach that you believe in/on Jesus, but the KJV tells you to believe in/on Jesus. (I can't recall which one went which way.). He said it was of great importance, and that people who had the wrong pronoun weren't getting saved.
    Of course as an adult this sounds pretty absurd. As a kid, I didn't know what to think or how to respond. I'll guarantee you one thing--this kid didn't get this idea from his own analysis as an 8-9 yr old. It was told him by an adult.

      False messiah comes 1st in Rev. 12 Satan and the fallen angels will be cast to earth, he is the son of perdition (perdition means to be put to death, he is the only 1 who has already been judged).
      The harlot, the woman spoken of is that great city Babylon, babel=confusion (Satan is the author of confusion), God said "to come out of her in Rev. 18:4 I think.
      It's not until the son of perdition, after the 2nd woe, on the 7th trumpet is when Jesus returns, the Lord's Day (that 1000yr period, the day John was taken to, even past where were at now), when Jesus returns the dead will rise and we will all (meaning everyone to have ever lived) be in the spirit.

      The religious beast who was out of the earth (dust/physically you could say) and cast to the earth, the anti-christ isn't a man, it's Satan (looks like a lamb, spake like a dragon).
      He exercises all the powers of the 1st beast (to take advantage, coming to make peace), and when the dragon healed the wound of the 1st beast, all worshipped it (trample like cattle).
      Churches will become the harlot and whore after her, and oh how so difficult it will be to speak/preach against peace/ the wound was by the sword and it is truth, for they/ the world will hate you/us for standing on God's Word till the end.

      Blessec be to all, in Revelation 13:1, the beast with 7 heads and 10 horns coming up out of the waters, multi-headed means political, singular is religious (being the anti-christ which is Satan).
      7 dominions throughout the earth, 10 kings/world leaders, the waters are the people expecting to be raptured out of here in famous fly away doctrine, for it will be as in the days of Noah that Yeshua mentions in Matthew 24 (with there being many other references throughout the old and new testament concerning the end times, as Daniel is a overlap of Revelation, and Ezekiel speaks more on the end times then any other book in the Bible other then that great book Revelation, the unveiling/uncovering as for the entomology of the word itself), those who are taken abide under God's wrath.
      The false/spurious messiah comes 1st in Rev. 12 on this earth for a 5 month period, Satan and the fallen angels will be cast to earth (for the angels are coming back to seduce the daughters of men as they did in Genesis 6), he is the son of perdition (perdition means to be put to death, for he has already been judged).
      The harlot, the woman spoken of is that great city Babylon, babel=confusion (Satan is the author of confusion), God said "to come out of her" in Rev. 18:4 I believe, as well as He did Abraham. It's not until the son of perdition, after the 2nd woe, on the 7th trumpet is when Jesus returns, the Lord's Day (that 1000yr period in 2nd Peter 3:8, the day John was taken to in the spirit, even past where were at now), when Jesus returns the dead will rise in Christ mentioned in 1 Thessalonians 4:16-17 (where most people cling to the Rapture Theory), and we will all (meaning everyone to have ever lived who has went before us and who remain), will be in the spirit.
      Yeshua Messiah will reign here in the new Heaven in the earth, then at the end of that period Satan will be let loosed a little while because God is fair and everyone will have a chance (not meaning a do what you want now and make up for it then, pertaining to those who have been unable to hear the good news of our Lord and Savior and will be tested by Satan as even Jesus was to set the example on how we combat our enemy), and they will be tested by him and some will still even then choose to follow/worship Satan, then comes the Great White Throne Judgement prior to the eternity.
      God is that consuming fire, you don't burn and are tortured in Hell forever and ever, your name is blotted out which is the eternal punishment, no longer existing, period, all souls return to whenst they came, for Jesus Himself would say depart from Me i never knew ye.
      The mark of beast in the forehead are those without the seal of God in their foreheads (meaning the truth), the mark on their hand are those doing the work of the beast, not a tattoo of 666 or a computer chip implanted.
      The 1st beast received a deadly wound on 1 of it's heads, a disagreement or falling out (as we even experience today), via the supernatural entity being Satan when he is cast out of Heaven entirely will come to solve the problem (world peace), no nations to wage war against 1 another we/they will all be as 1, a 1 world rule, under Satan (in the beast system).
      The religious beast who was out of the earth (dust/physically you could say, not flesh for is a cherubim as serveral are mentioned throughtout scripture), and cast to the earth, the anti-christ isn't a man, it's Satan (looks like a lamb, spake like a dragon).
      He exercises all the powers of the 1st beast (to take advantage, coming to make peace), and when the dragon healed the wound of the 1st beast, and all worshipped it (trampling like cattle, moths to a flame).
      Many churches will become the harlot and whore after her, and oh how so difficult it will be to speak/preach against peace/ the wound was by the sword and it is truth, for they/ the world will hate you/us for standing on God's Word till the end.
      Satan uses men just as God does and counterfeits all God does, some of the churches will do the work for him as they are openingly displaying now the Satanic infestation that is spreading like a contagion of death, they'll think your preaching against Jesus, our Messiah to come, for Babylon today is being revived to its fullest making the way and craving the path in blood for the false to come, so many will be deceived that you personally hold so near and dear to your heart.

    Hello Mark, I always enjoy when you ask viewers to 'pause' the video for thoughts. I commonly do so, for a little different reason though. I open my New World Translation bible and compare it with the KJV scripture in discussion. Every single time, with no exception, the NWT is exactly in line with the resulting point you make and sometimes even clearer! (I've watched all of your "false Friends" videos throughout the covid isolation.) At the same time, I did guess (without even checking my Greek) that "in" could have possibly meant "on" back in Elizabethan times. I use your videos (you're not the only one though) to test and compare how the NWT lines up with your conclusions. You have a 100% success rate so far! Keep up the good work!

I have spent my entire life in a VERY KJV only environment. Many times I have been told that the modern English Bible translations are corrupted, and to make a point, they show that whichever Bible they are talking about is different than the KJV and the same as the NWT. To them this is the ultimate insult of a Bible translation. And I have been told that Jehovah's witnesses don't like the KJV but will prefer modern English translations.

The same is true of the NBLA, a _modern_ Spanish translation; it literally says "in the forehead".

    Equate this to can't see the forest for the trees. So many times having such a narrow view on what a verse says is usually due to supporting a specific doctrine or idea. The danger is that one can lose sight of the big picture which is where we spend eternity by being overly focused on differences in belief rather than on the harm that can come saying my interpretation is the only correct one. Your constant focus on clarity without being judgemental is a rare and refreshing attitude that I find worthwhile. Please continue in this.

    You didn't do enough to rule out the other option that comes to mind: advanced revelation. Who's to say that language change itself is not revealing the true meaning of the KJV to us now, a meaning that was unconsciously placed in (not on) the text by the Anglican prophets of old? After all, if I've learned anything from decades of pre-trib rapture media, it's that my generation is especially important in the history of Christianity. It's only right that we feel entitled to hidden knowledge within the book of Revelation now that we're in Scofield's "self-satisfied" Laodicean Age, right?

We'll never be able to produce a translation that eliminates that possibility, but we can produce translations that make archaisms less likely to be the cause of those misunderstandings. Also: in some contexts, like "thy will be done in earth," the contemporary meaning of "in" makes so little sense that (most?) people are shunted into the right view. But in the story in this video, that wasn't true for Rev 16:13-for at least some Christians.

      A mark on the forehead is symbolic, signaling association with someone. Compare Revelation 7.2-4 and Deuteronomy 6.6-8 (quoted here from the NCPB KJV):
      And I saw another angel ascending from the east, having the seal of the living God: and he cried with a loud voice to the four angels to whom it was given to hurt the earth and the sea, saying, ‘Hurt not the earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, till we have sealed the servants of our God in their foreheads’. And I heard the number of them which were sealed: and there were sealed a hundred and forty and four thousand of all the tribes of the children of Israel. (Rev. 7.2-4)
      And these words which I command thee this day, shall be in thy heart. And thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy children, and shalt talk of them when thou sittest in thy house, and when thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down, and when thou risest up. And thou shalt bind them for a sign upon thy hand, and they shall be as frontlets between thy eyes. (Deut. 6.6-8)

I remember going to my wife afterwards and telling her “I just read the words of Jesus for the first time.” She replied “and?” And I said “these are not the words of some mere man.” Three years later I got saved when I was 29 and a married father of two when a fundamental Baptist preached the gospel to me.

    "in"
    However... considering that the historical stance on the Mark of the Beast has been such that the mark is not a literal, physical mark, but instead an indicator of thinking or doing (for example, living like the world, thus the "six-hundred sixty-six" as being the number of fallen humanity; or, in the case of the number-letter equivalence doctrinal position, that 666--or 616, as found in some texts--is a reference to the name of Nero, which would mean treating Nero as above Jesus), the use of "in" may be actually MORE applicable than "on"

    Surely part of the complication here is that Revelation is given in symbols? So where a person might be relying on on translation for their theology and feel they need “in” or “on”, when in fact the symbolic nature of it would actually give some wiggle room either way in the use of those words?

    • @MAMoreno
      @MAMoreno 9 місяців тому +1

      Micah 5.2 is saying that the ruler will come from an ancient bloodline (i.e. David's lineage). While it has been treated as a reference to Christ's deity by some interpreters, it is _not_ used this way when Matthew quotes it (2.6). At worst, the ESV is choosing not to push that interpretation as the only acceptable one.
      By contrast, consider how the KJV handles Galatians 4.3-5: "Even so we, when we were children, were in bondage under the elements of the world: but when the fulness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law, to redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons."
      Was Jesus "made," as the KJV says, or was he "born," as the ESV says?

    I gave up on the KJV forty years ago just for the reason you say. It is a beautiful translation, but some passages can be difficult to understand because of the changes in English. I do like the NKJV, but it is not my primary translation. My understanding moves along faster with several of the newer ones. And, as I understand it, modern translators have access to some better ancient copies than were available to the KJV translators. The MOST important thing, however, is that you read any translation with prayer.

    In 1969 John Denver wrote a song “Leaving On A Jet Plane.” If I recall correctly it was first recorded by Peter, Paul and Mary. Was John (who was also a pilot) suggesting he could fly ON a jet plane rather than IN a jet plane? No, the word “on” can be short for “on board” or a substitute for “in” when it sounds better to the ear or is easier to say with the mouth. Keep in mind, the Bible was written to be read out loud and heard as nobody has a copy of their own Bible until they became available and affordable by the common person.

      I think I take a different lesson from examples like this than most of my commenters seem to. Here's the lesson: idiomatic use of presuppositions is a fickle and changing thing which doesn't always contain lots of rhyme or reason. English could change so that no one ever says "I'm on a plane" but instead "I'm in a plane." Likewise, English once allowed "a mark in the hand" to mean (what we would say as) "a mark on the hand."

      @@markwardonwords You left out "I'm leaving...". Listen to the song, then try singing "I'm leaving IN a jet plane..." Notice how your mouth is staying relatively closed with "leaving in". Now sing "I'm leaving ON a jet plane..." Your mouth is forced open more you so that "leavin'" (the "g" in "leaving" is soft when sung) is distinguished from "in." This probably isn't the case with Revelation 13:16 but if you read a Hebrew and Greek text out loud (as it was intended to be read) you can hear the word choices being made with the ear. This is especially true with paronomasia when words need to sound alike in order to make the words play off each other. But now I am WAY off on a tangent.... but that's what I seem to do a lot in my old age. By the way, when I was a wee lad I was told the Mark of the Beast was a bar code (1970's) then it became a microchip in the 1980's.... but I've become convinced it is a reference to Cesar Nero which is SUCH a relief as I wouldn't want have to scan my forehead at the grocery store.

    New King James says "on" which is still KJV but updated to reflect modern word meaning - this seems to confirm your explanation that "in" was correct in the original KJV because it included the meaning 'on'. Also, Young's Literal Translation says "upon" and it purports to be literal, for example it translates doulos (Greek) as 'slave' whereas most translations incorrectly translate it as 'servant or bond servant'. Other more literal translations say "on" (HCSB, LSB and LEB). So it seems 'in" was in back in 1611 but is now out and that "on" or "upon" is correct for the latest version of the English language we use now. Good video.

A tattoo is BOTH on and in at the same time. The ink shows up on the flesh but stays for the remainder of a persons life because it is also IN the flesh.

    From what I understand. The mark is a pledge of allegiance to a leader who sets himself up as 'god' in the 3rd temple.
    If you look at radical Islamic warriors, they were a head band and wrist band with script on it pledging their allegiance to allah.
    Islam seems to be who people will follow after the church is removed from this world and the 7 year tribulation starts. Whether a chip is incorporated into this allegiance is speculation on my part, but that's my 2 cents worth.
