[Judy Taylor]

I'm not provoked Lance, but you will need to show me what "theology" you believe I have imbibed from Dakes Bible and in what ways it is "dangerous and heretical"  I have a lot of Bibles and they include Schofield, Thompson, and many other translations (except Darby).  What do you find so dangerous about Dake that I am missing?  jt       From: "Lance Muir" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Jt:You've just answered my previous question. I do not wish to provoke you Judy, but, I believe that the theology you've 'imbibed' is inherently dangerous and heretical in some areas. Being the excellent researcher that you are, I'm confident you can check this out for yourself. I stopped carrying it (Dake's Bible) years ago for this (these) reason(s).   From: Judy Taylor   I don't know much about Darby, but I have a Dakes Bible. Have had one since 1979 and really like it.  It's not the ONLY Bible I use but if I have a conflict or a question I always look at his notes to see what he says about it and then go to some other sources also. IMO Dakes Bible is right next to Strongs as a Bible Study tool.   judyt       The Darby translation is from JN Darby, first published in 1890. You can find more information here:   http://www.ccel.org/bible/jnd/darby.htm   I found some info on the Dake Bible here:   http://www.dake.com/who.html   It seems that the Dake version is the KJV with Finis Jennings Dake's reference notes.   http://www.dake.com/faq.html   Personally, I'm rather wary of using a version translated by only 1 person for authoritative work. Translations by committee may seem maddening at times, but many people working together can provide a more thorough view of the text in the original languages.   Anyway, my Hebrew professor (Allen Ross) is fond of saying that a translation is merely a commentary. When you read the Bible in English, you're reading what the translator(s) can infer from the Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek.   JA John Alexander [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://homepage.mac.com/johnalex1/     On Jul 26, 2004, at 7:57 PM, the harrisons wrote:   > anyone know anything about these Bibles? > > > For subscription information, visit > <http://www.rowan.edu/~kilroy/CHRISTIA> > To leave the list, send the command UNSUB CHRISTIA to > [EMAIL PROTECTED]     For subscription information, visit <http://www.rowan.edu/~kilroy/CHRISTIA> To leave the list, send the command UNSUB CHRISTIA to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
