Seriously? So you believe in supersessionism. You are proving my point. The seeds of Marcion made their way into most of the church fathers, and one of their fruits was the KJV, and it is steeped in replacement theology. Of course you would prefer to read this version. Because it was created with replacement theology burned into their minds. And this is what you seem to believe in too.
Here is an example:
In the KJV they used to put chapter summary headings. I know this helps me greatly when searching through books. However, look at the way the KJV confuses the issue of who the blessings of Israel are written to.
View attachment 258077
Isaiah 45 "God calleth Cyrus for his Church's sake". Yet, this prophecy was given 150 yrs before Cyrus came to power or was even born.
Here is the text in a more correct version.
Isaiah 44
28 while saying of Cyrus, “He is My shepherd,
and he shall fulfill all My purpose”
while saying to Jerusalem, “You will be built”
and to the Temple, “Your foundation will be laid.”
Isaiah 45
1 Thus says Adonai to His anointed, Cyrus,
whose right hand I have grasped,
to subdue nations before him,
to loose the belts of kings,
to open doors before him
so that gates may not be shut.
4 For the sake of Jacob My servant,
and Israel My chosen one,
I have also called you by name,
I have given you a title of honor,
though you have not known Me.
13 “I stirred Cyrus up in righteousness
and I will level all his roads.
He will build My city
and set My exiles free,
with no price or bribe,”
says Adonai-Tzva’ot.
150 yrs after the exile into Babylon Cyrus the Great granted Nehemiah permission to go back into the city and rebuild the city itself. Our God forever merciful to Israel, his chosen. Jacob his beloved.
This prophecy is written long before the church, before the new testament. The prophet is speaking of the Jewish people, Israel. This was long before the church you even recognize.
Ephesians states God is taking in both Jews and gentiles into one
new man. Israel is not the church because many Jews are not believers. And the church is not Israel because many of the church are not of Jewish decent.
In the KJV anywhere the curses are mentioned it boldly identifies Israel and the Jews. Yet when God speaks of the blessings he has in store for Israel the KJV inserts the church to receive them. How anti semetic no? Yet you want to point to it as the more clear authority?
You've presented nothing here but a red herring. And you completely misrepresent the one you quote, and the one you claim to believe in.
