Ambiguity in 2 Corinthians 2:5
Byhenry January 16, 2008
This is a brief note expanding my query about ambiguous passages. I have discussed passage that are ambiguous in Greek, but where translating them ambiguously in English results in a different range of options from those a Greek reader would likely perceive. This passage seems to me to be a case in which one must…

Quick Thoughts after Reading Different Greek Texts
Byhenry April 14, 2016

Man, Mankind, or People – Genesis 1:27 and Genesis 6:5-8
Byhenry January 7, 2007
On my Threads blog I comment on Pastor Mark Driscoll’s theological basis for using the ESV at Mars Hill Church.
