→‎Counterexample 9 (Jesus action-at-a-distance): Subsequently the phrase is "exact hour" (which should probably be translated as "exact time" or "exact moment" per the comment section)
Line 193: Line 193:     
:::::: But it ''doesn't'' say that it was instantaneous.  According to your own translation, "So he asked them the exact hour when he began to feel better, and they told him, 'His fever broke yesterday, at about one pm.'".  According to the Douay-Rheims, "He asked therefore of them the hour wherein he grew better. And they said to him: 'Yesterday, at the seventh hour, the fever left him.'"  Neither indicates an instant healing, as a half hour is ''way'' too long to tell the difference between an instant healing and a healing with a speed-of-light delay.--[[User:Freiberg|Freiberg]] 15:03, 16 August 2010 (EDT)

::::::: Subsequently the phrase is "exact hour" (which should probably be translated as "exact time" or "exact moment" per the comment section).  So thanks for your point because it illustrates the weakness in translation.  The instantaneous healing is central to the purpose of the event.--[[User:Aschlafly|Andy Schlafly]] 15:25, 16 August 2010 (EDT)
