, 18:05, October 22, 2009question about "Christ" vs "the Christ" in 2:4
1:24 ''and wed Mary''. Married is clearer to the young.
1:24 ''and wed Mary''. Married is clearer to the young.
2:4 I'm wondering if the phrase "where Christ would be born" shouldn't rather be "where the Christ would be born." The former makes it sound as if Christ is a surname, rather than a title. "Where the Messiah would be born" would make it more clear that Herod was worrying about the impending birth of the King of the Jews.--[[User:Caspianrex|Cory Howell]] 14:05, 22 October 2009 (EDT)
2:7 "which would announce Christ's birth." This is not in the original, and though it is not inaccurate, such supplied words should be placed in ''italics'' or [brackets] (i notice both used in other places) so the reader can distinguish between God's word and mans helpful additions.
