John 1-7 (Translated) (view source)
Revision as of 20:56, November 9, 2009
, 20:56, November 9, 2009→Chapter 5
|And ye have not his word abiding in you: for whom he hath sent, him ye believe not.
|And ye have not his word abiding in you: for whom he hath sent, him ye believe not.
|nor do you have His word living in you, because you do not believe in the one He sent.
|nor do you have His word living in you, because you do not believe in the one He sent.

|The word used here, "meno - to stay, to remain" calls to mind the parable of the sower; specifically, the seed that fell on the path and was quickly eaten by birds. The implication of that word is that the Father's word enters, but it doesn't stay long, as their unbelief allows Satan to quickly snatch it away. Most translations say "dwelling" or "abiding," but those are too archaic. The problem is that the only word I could think of, "living," calls to mind "dzao, to live," so it might be kind of misleading. Any suggestions?
