There Can Be Bibles In All Languages.

I study the biblical Daniel 70th week... There are passages that because of editing, the context changed, throwing off the timeline.

[@chrisp9500]

The word was "stablished." As in established. And it's present truth, not perfect truth. The s looks like an f but without the line across.

[@bonniebonnie9388]

Is the word Lord in the Geneva Bible or was that added during king James translation? and so is the real name of The Most High God's name in the Geneva Bible , is the name of Yahweh in the Geneva Bible ?

[@joelmcleay]

I imagine they followed the tradition first set when the Jews themselves translated the Old Testament into Greek centuries before Jesus, and translated it 'LORD'.

I was an avid believer that the 1611 Authorised King James Version was the pure infallible Word in the English language. However upon praying to the Lord for Truth and guidance as something did not feel quite right, He led me to the Geneva 1560. I came across this video and felt compelled to comment and say that I believe with all my heart , that the Geneva Bible is the Bible any professing Christian should be using and studying. I study first thing in the morning and last thing before bed. The Geneva Bible was counteracted and banned by King James because it holds the real Truth, not just because of the marginal comments but because of the fact that Truth is constantly being with held by the Devil, and all other Bible versions in my opinion after the Geneva Bible have been heavily influenced by Antichrist. The NIV, the King James, all of them, they are all corrupt and a corrupt word means you are believing on a false Christ. Many shall deceive. Please, turn to the Geneva and leave all the other “Bibles” alone. This is not a troll comment, I must let my brothers and sisters in Christ know. God bless you, Ollie.

I've started reading this recently. I'd like to know if you pronounce the words how they're written or they would be pronounced currently. Seeing Jesus Christ spelt Iefus Chrift gives me pause. Is this how it was always supposed to be? I've noticed S replaces a lot of letters from how it was spelled then to now. God Bless.

I hihgly doubt that.... There's a big push by the reformed, calvinist heretics to get people to get the Geneva "bible" where the margins are stacked full of poisonous heresy from John "the devil" Calvin, the murderous heretic who reigned as a tyrant in GENEVA Switzerland because dying and going to hell. But the Geneva "bible" is just another fraud. There were divine reasons it was superseded by the vastly superior King James Bible. Here just one example..... There's a video that circulates that pretends to show that the KJB is in error because it defines Ephesians 6:12 as spiritual warfare whereas the Geneva "bible" teaches that verse to mean that we are to war against civil government. Here's my reply to such: This is a deception. Beware. Be not deceived. Cease being so gullible to believe every video of someone ranting. First off, the whole text, passage of Ephesians 6:10-18 is clearly, overwhelmingliny speaking of SPIRITUAL warfare, not combatting the civil government, which Christ, His apostles, and early church never did. Read it afresh for the actual context. Just because he rants doesn't make what he's saying true. this information is actually in error because Jesus and his apostles never resisted the corrupt Roman Government of their time nor did they teach others to rebel against the government. Keep in mind that governments civil governments are ordained of God although many times they become corrupt. Check out Romans chapter 13 1st Peter chapter 2 verses 13 and 14. Also keep in mind that John Calvin was a lawless murderous man and he wanted nothing to do with accountability to anyone including governments. See Romans 13 and 1 Peter 2:13-14 about the command of God to obey government servants who are in place to protect and provide a fair monetary system. With this truth in mind, it should be easy to understand why the LORD had the King James Bible translators correct this obviously error in the Geneva "bible."

⁠@@Trevor-08hello! I know this comment is a year late, but if you’re still looking for an answer, yes, all of those words are pronounced the same as today. The 1560 Geneva Bible is written in Early Modern English, which is why the J’s look like I’s and many S’s look like F’s without the slash across it. It can be a bit jarring at first but once you get the hang of it it’s really not too bad! Personally, I bought the hardcover 1560 version AND the PDF copy of the 1599 version, which updates all of the spelling to today’s modern English. It really helps having them side-by-side in areas where I really can’t figure out a word or the print is a little too spotty. If you aren’t a big fan of the spelling, then you could just skip straight to the 1599 Geneva Bible, although those hardcover versions WITH the apocrypha still in it are rather expensive. God has recently led me to this Bible not too long ago and although I haven’t been studying out of it for too long thus far, I still definitely recommend! :) hope this helped and God bless!!

The bible is a book written by men who never even met the people they wrote about (many many years after). It is also heavily edited by a church that had a power and politics agenda, eliminating a number of chapters. In addition, there isn't just one Christian bible - there are at least three with different numbers of chapters. There exists no provable, fact-based evidence to support any of the supernatural (spiritual) events in it. Thus, it is pure human belief - a human emotion and dependent on as many human thoughts as there are humans. To believe without factual evidence is like saying a court case should be determined by only hearsay or a feeling. It's hard to think God wouldn't hold humans to a standard that they hold themselves

@@docf3605 " What evidence do you have that an Atheist Society would ban Slavery?" Let's see - the Egyptians, who had multiple gods, were multiple slave owners. And from 1619 to 1865 Early Americans who were mired in religion, were slave owners. So, no , offhand I don't have evidence that Atheists would ban slavery - just that heavily religious people practiced it.
