    I don’t think that’s accurate at all. There are Bible scholars who make it their life’s work to understand the oldest manuscripts of the Bible we have in the context they were written in. Many newer Bible versions have these blurbs in them that explain certain phrases exactly to avoid misunderstandings. It’s on you if you choose to stick to stuff like the King James’s version, I’d say.

        Ah, that’s fair then! The more people working on it the better our understanding will be!
