That makes no sense.

You should have written "And, if so..."

So, despite your protests, we are still left with no scholars supporting your reading and no reason to think you have it right while everyone else has it wrong.

IOW, nothing to suggest I have been wrong about you at all.

How do you know you understand the translation perfectly?
You make no sense.

You make assertions and then ask questions afterwards.

Maybe I KNOW a translator.

Just read my post and you will find out what I KNOW.

Maybe but your reluctance to provide any names or support for your apparently unique reading suggests otherwise.

That's what I thought. Just playing games to distract from your lack of knowledge. No wonder you got so upset when I called your bluff. :wave:

And I don't get upset, I'm having fun. You are so predictable.

I agree! Doug is predictable. Predictably fair, predictably reasonable, predictably keen. And he predictably calls nonsense what it is.

You are correct.

Luke 1.41 definitely has "in" and not "into".

And I have found a passage that appear to CONFIRM that the author did refer to the baby of Elizabeth and NOT of Mary.

These are words of Elizabeth, according to the author of Luke:

Luke 1.44,
Quote:
"For lo, as soon as the voice of thy salutation sounded in mine ears, the babe leaped in MY WOMB for joy.

So what becomes both of your earlier claim made here that Lk. 1:41 the text spoke of a baby leaping into Mary's womb was a "perfect understanding" of this text and your claim made here that you know what you are talking about when you make claims about what (translations of) biblical texts do and do not say?
