Wow, I think a year late here but found this little tid bit interesting.
Isaiah 45:7.
KJV:
I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things.
NASB
The One forming light and creating darkness, Causing well-being and creating calamity; I am the LORD who does all these.
Now I checked my bible and there is now indeed calamity instead of evil.
Clearly this "little" completely changes the meaning of that line.
God creates calamity: floods, earthquakes, etc.
God creates evil: satan, hate, etc.
If this small change was made in recent years then what of so much else in the bible that was translated, copied and so forth.
And even so both sentences are quite different. |
