Jealousy and your thoughts?

Considering it is an English translation of what was originally written in Greek it seems like splitting hairs to make such acute distinction in Paul's verbage, but I will leave you to your theory.

Well then that leaves every translation wrong at least ones done inthe native toungue of the reader so why do we read them and quote them to back our thinking....... and in that case the KJV is just as blasphemous as the NIV and the NKJV and so on.......I think God gave us more credit then that....apparently some have and will abuse this though.

I never said that they were blasphemous, just that it is difficult to draw that fine of a line around diction when dealing with a translation.

I don't beleive any translation to be "wrong" just not as "exact" or "precise" as the original text. I think for at leas 99% of these situations it isn't a problem but there is a percentage that require somone knowlegeable of the original texts, in their native language.

Sadly I am not that person and I must rely on the expertise of others in these areas.

I don't see how I have abused anything
