Guess what I did? I translated the dang word! It means 'lo' as in "Lo and behold". 'Look' shortened to 'Lo'. Not 'wow' not anything else that has been said. the Greek word  ιδού means 'lo'. Translate it yourself and you will see. Just google "Translate Greek ιδού" and oh my goodness, its the first link! Can we find something else to talk about now? I see the translation isn't included, I don't care if it is or not. It is one word from a gosple made up of many other letters and whatnot. The meaning still remains whether or not you use it. I would edit it to correct the commentary placed next to the scripture in question, but I don't want to mess with anything I don't have a right messing with. [[User:MHarris|MHarris]]

:Your spirited comments are welcome, but "lo" (like "wow") seems beneath the level of the Gospels.  I wouldn't expect to find those words in the Constitution, or in a good Bible translation.

:Good translations respect the source that is being translated, and preserve as much meaning as possible.  If the meaning is "lo" (or "wow"), the point is to explain what is so amazing about what happened.  In this context, the amazing attribute is temporal:  the veil was torn "at that moment."  Hence that is the best translation.--[[User:Aschlafly|Andy Schlafly]] 23:21, 11 June 2011 (EDT)
