Slave and Servant

Thursday, June 26th, 2008

I am listening to a sermon by John MacArthur titled “Slaves of Christ.” He claims that bible translators did not properly translate the word slave, doulos, in the New Testament. He says they should have used the word “slave” not “servant.” Is this true? Why didn’t the KJV use the right word? Thanks. — [...]

Reading Greek Phonetically

Tuesday, March 4th, 2008

Today I took a video of Octavio reading John 1:1 in Greek. You can see the book standing on the white board. I am very careful that Octavio is not memorizing the words as pictures (whole word in Greek would be a disaster!). He is really reading the words and he knows its meanings in [...]

First Lesson in Reading Greek

Monday, February 25th, 2008

Hello Laurie,
Did I tell you that Octavio can read Greek? He has learned to blend the Greek letter sounds. The Greek Alphabetarion is really good for small children. Octavio is now 3 years and 11 months old, but he started to read Greek words in October. In September we started to study the syllables lessons, [...]

Greek and Hebrew Texts

Monday, January 8th, 2007

I was looking at interlinear Greek-Hebrew-English Bibles and wasn’t sure which one I should get. I want to get a reliable manuscript. I thought I had remembered that the Masoretic Text (Hebrew) and the Textus Receptus (Greek) were considered the most authentic. One other choice was the Biblia Hebraica Leningradensia (Hebrew). Can you [...]

Bible Translations

Wednesday, September 13th, 2006

Dear Harvey,
Some time ago, I emailed to Gail Riplinger’s site (New Age Bible Versions) about something from her site, that the modern translations are inaccurate partly because they are not interpreting the original languages correctly, as the KJV translators did. I emailed to ask further about that and someone replied that the men [...]

To the Bluedorns

Harvey,
When I saw that you were actively engaged in publication of the 2nd part of Homeschool Greek, I stopped everything and dropped to my knees before the Throne and asked our Father to give you a generous measure of knowledge and understanding and wisdom to produce a work that would enable a new generation to [...]
