::The above quotations are accurate.  Politics can sometimes get to the right answer quicker than other approaches.  By the way, so can logic, law, and science.  Linguistic ambiguities in translating can be difficult, but casting the light of politics, logic, law and science can help clarify the ambiguity and show the way to the correct translation into English.

::For example, in [[Matthew 20-28 (Translated)#26:64}Matthew 26:64]] [[Jesus]] says something so blasphemous that it caused the High Priest to demand his execution.  But the Greek is somewhat ambiguous as to what the English translation should be.  It was either "Hereafter you will see 'the Son of man, sitting on the right hand of power, and coming in the clouds of heaven'" or Hereafter you will see '''the'' Son, a man, sitting on the right hand of power, and coming in the clouds of heaven.'"

::Linguistic debates about that can last days, or centuries.  But cast the light of law on that issue, and ask this: which rendition is blasphemous, clearly so?  Then the latter rendition becomes the more precise one.

::Do you see anything wrong with this approach?  As a book of logic, the Bible should be translated this way.--[[User:Aschlafly|Andy Schlafly]] ([[User talk:Aschlafly|talk]]) 18:40, 10 April 2017 (EDT)
