Please let's not try to do the work of the B-Translation list on B-Greek;
while the question about the oldest Greek fragments (of Biblical texts?) is
appropriate for b-greek, judgments about accurate translations of the New
Testament are going to vary across a pretty broad spectrum because there
are so many different perspectives at play among the members of this list.
This is a question that is discussed repeatedly and from a variety of
different perspectives on the B-Translation list. For information about the
B-Translation list and to look at current messages there, go to:
https://mail.kastanet.org/lists/Bible-Translation/List.html
One other item: please note that B-Greek protocol requires that messages
posted to the list bear a real-name signature. I am assuming that "Spirit
Truth" has a name that will be used hereafter when he or she sends messages
to the list.
