How should we cite the Conservative Bible? "CB" or "CPB"?

Line 14: Line 14:

#How to translate the word awkwardly translated as "past" (mentioned 6 times in the [[ESV]] New Testament), when the word "past" now primarily connotes one's own past?

#How to translate "righteous" and "wicked" in the Old Testament (see [[Genesis_17-25_(Translated)#Chapter_18|Gen:18]])? The problem with "righteous" is the modern tendency to define Godliness as "doing good deeds" as opposed to "proximity to God".

#How should we cite the [[Conservative Bible]]? As "CB", or perhaps "CPB" to give it the three letters like others ("CP" being the abbreviation for Conservapedia)

In deciding original intent, we keep in mind the availability of alternative terms in the Greek in assessing why the authors chose one word rather than the alternatives.
