"A guy once said reading the Bible in translation is like kissing your
girlfriend over the telephone. That may be OK in a pinch, but there is
a whole better way to do it." And the article goes on to talk about a
retired pastor teaching non-accredited Greek and Hebrew at a community
colleged for Bible reading in the tri-cities area. Apparently, a lot of
folks are showing up.
The other quotation that's got some stickum to it is: "Two things
happen in translation. Something in the original text gets lost, and
something not in the original gets added."
So I pass this along...
