i would venture to say that dr. conrad would probably concur with this.
incidentally, this would probably be a question more appropriate for the bible translation list, since that's the question that gary asked ("we're trying to decide here if the best translation..."). and there was quite an extensive discussion on the b-trans list i think around a year ago about the translation of PRWTOTOKOS in Col 1:15. unfortunately, i don't believe that their archives are searchable, so i cannot even narrow it down for you. anyone else here remember (iver larson? peter kirk?)?
