And as concerning "a stark contradiction" when I read in your precious NIV:
Matt 5:22 "But I tell you that anyone who is angry with a brother or sister will be subject to judgment...."
Ephesians 4:26 "In your anger do not sin...."
This is much worse than a word having a double meaning. Because how did they arrive at this contradiction where they make Jesus call anger itself a sin while Paul says you can be angry and yet not sin in your anger. How did they botch this up?
They removed the words "without a cause" in Matt 5:22 because two or three junk manuscripts found in Egyptian trash dumps left them off.
AND WHAT'S WORSE is they don't even have the decency to tell you this! Whereas the amazingly awesome NRSV does in a footnote saying "other ancient authorities add without cause." Thanks NIV liars for just removing the words and not even telling us like the wonderful and honest folks at the NRSV did.
Ok, actually, I looked again, and the NIV does have a footnote too. I just missed it because they split the note for the verse into 3 notes, and it was in the second one, whereas in the NRSV it was in the first one.
