Fantastic. So now you have a mistranslated bible, written by atheists, agnostics and phonies yet you consider it to be the inspired word of God?Sorry, but that is an obvious mistranslation since the Hebrew word for "her" is the SAME word for "his" in the verses just before the verse you listed. ALSO, The Hebrew word which is used for both is the word "miyn" which is in Strong's.

Unless you use the KJV you will misunderstand.

You what? How does age make something "less altered"?It is also old and that means that it is less altered than the newer versions.

You picked an interesting word in Spanish - el cabeza (masculine) is the head of a family (I think), la cabeza (feminine) is your noggin. Several languages have nouns with same spelling (homonyms) but slightly different meanings depending on gender but with common etymologies. There are also homonyms of different genders with very different meanings but also different etymologies - German has der Band (masculine, music band), die Band (feminine, ribbon) and das Band (neuter, volume of a book).Have a linguistics question for you, BB. I am somewhat familiar with masculine and feminine words, having studied Spanish for several years. Obviously, it is a bit of a foreign concept for most Americans, as it isn't a part of English grammar (although, I think it used to be A LONG TIME AGO, if I remember the history correctly).
At any rate, "cabeza" is Spanish for "head" and it is a feminine word, regardless of which gender owns any particular noggin.
My question is: are there languages where a noun is conjugated differently depending on how it relates to physical gender?

Would you like to dig a deeper hole?
What does the Hebrew word for "kind" being masculine have to do with anything?

Clearly, you are unfamiliar with how the Bible is translated into English. Please explain to me why you think the KJV is less altered than the newer versions.

It's not unusual for there to be masculine and feminine forms of things like jobs, which is one place where gender is still used in English (actor / actress, prince / princess).
French and Italian are interesting in having certain nouns which are masculine in the singular but feminine in the plural (il braccio / le braccia, for example).
To your question, though, I'm not aware of any language where noun gender changes depending on the owner of the object. But since there are almost 7000 languages, of which about 1/4 use gender, and I only speak 8 of them, I'm not going to say there definitely isn't one.
Their kind refers to God and His kind refers to God's Son. I don't see any women there but only two kinds of He. Which kind do you think God is speaking of in Genesis? His (Jesus) or Their (Trinity) kind?
Because greedy mankind has had less time to alter the Bible to make it agree with their phony religions. Or do you put your faith in greedy religionists?
We think He meant "its."Their kind refers to God and His kind refers to God's Son. I don't see any women there but only two kinds of He. Which kind do you think God is speaking of in Genesis? His (Jesus) or Their (Trinity) kind?
So age means it is unaltered because it was altered? You're completely incoherent.The same reason Jesus reduced the lifespan of mankind from 900 plus years to 120.
You see no irony in this claim?Religions alter God's Holy Word attempting to make it "fit" with their unsupported beliefs.
Indeed. And you are guilty of that sin.Adding just one letter changes the entire meaning of the Bible. God is One.
You are correct. English is a Germanic language. Old English had 3 genders, but these mostly fell out of use in Middle English (roughly 11th to 16th centuries).Thanks. Am I remembering correctly that English used to use engendered words more frequently in the distant past?
We think He meant "its."
What's the pronoun rule in biblical Hebrew?
Basing your interpretation on English won't do you any good at all.
LOL! The antecedent of the pronoun is "beast" not "God."Do you see God as an it?
I only observe that if God authored Genesis He authored it in Biblical Hebrew, not Elizabethan English. If you want to know exactly what He wrote you have to read the Hebrew.I have no idea and it doesn't matter to those like me who believe the KJV tells us God's Truth AND live in the last days AND notice that recent scientific discoveries confirm the only God could have authored Genesis.
Are you Hebrew? Do you think the Jewish Religion is the correct one? You seem to since you study the Bible through the eyes of ancient Hebrew Theologians who lived more than 3k years ago. IF they had been correct, Jesus would NOT have had to die for the sins of mankind. Amen?
