Of course.  I was speaking of the original ms.  We do realize that we are reading English translations of such, and must therefore rely upon the best available sources. We don’t need to squabble about those again. Izzy And you question the use of "imagination?"  You make assertions about manuscripts that do not exist.   I can go with thought inspiration quicker than "verbal plenary."   Word for word  dictation would eliminate the personalities of the individual authors  --  which is not the case.  Your last sentence indicates a desire to avoid further discussion.   Alrighty then.  JD   Dear JD,   Please be notified that the FIRST copy of scripture, written by the FIRST writer (ie: Matthew, Mark, Luke, John) was THE ORIGINAL.  There definitely WAS one, whether you have a copy in your sweaty little hand or not.   Love, Izzy
