But so many sources translate this word as a census, so does anybody know of a reason for this?  If so, let me know here and we can discuss and possibly change it. [[User:JacobB|JacobB]] 18:54, 10 October 2009 (EDT)

18. In Greek, the words are εὐηγγελίζετο (could be translated 'preached Good News' or 'evangelized' or just 'preached' and παρακαλῶν parakalōn (exhortations or encouragements).  The word 'warning' is just not there.

19. It's a little more complicted than that.  Herodias was divorced by Philip and then married Herod Antipas.  John's objection was to the fact Herod had married a woman who was the ex-wife of his still-living brother, a condition not permitted in Jewish law.  So, the reprove was for an unlawful marriage, and, by extension open fornication, but not adultery.

20. No.  The word censor is not in the original, and by throwing John into prison, he did a lot more than that.
