Talk:John 15-21 (Translated) (view source)
Revision as of 22:30, December 25, 2022
, 22:30, December 25, 2022→John 16:33
I notice that the proposed conservative translation replaces the more frequently used term "tribulation" with "persecuted"; I strongly think that it's important to keep the word "tribulation," which corresponds with other usages of the term in Scripture, especially [https://biblehub.com/revelation/7-14.htm Revelation 7:14], which uses the term "''the great tribulation''." "Persecuted" is rather vague and generic, while "tribulation" carries a greater emphasis and corresponds to other key Scripture verses particularly pertaining to eschatology. —[[User:LT|<code><span style="background:#FF8181">'''LT'''</span></code>]] '''''[[User talk:LT|<sup>(Exodus 23:2)</sup>]]''''' Sunday, 15:12, December 25, 2022 (EST)

:Interesting point! But isn't the term "tribulation" archaic today?--[[User:Aschlafly|Andy Schlafly]] ([[User talk:Aschlafly|talk]]) 16:56, December 25, 2022 (EST)

::"Persecution" implies a second party and victimhood, whereas "tribulation" simply means "trouble", which often is self-inflicted from dealing with stress or sin.[[User:RobSmith|RobS]]<sup>[[User talk:RobSmith|''Give Peace a chance'']]</sup> 17:30, December 25, 2022 (EST)
