Can some please explain to me why most English translations translate Matt
23:9b as they do.
Matt 23:9b (GNT) .... EIS GAR ESTIN hUMWN hO PATHR hO OURANIOS
Matt 23:9b (NASU) .... for One is your Father, He who is in heaven.
Matt 23:9b (NIV) .... for you have one Father, and he is in heaven.
Matt 23:9b (NRA) .... for you have one Father-the one in heaven.
Matt 23:9b (RSV) .... for you have one Father, who is in heaven.
Matt 23:9b (WEB) .... for one is your Father, he who is in heaven.
Matt 23:9b (ESV) .... for you have one Father, who is in heaven.
When I read it, I understood it as;
Matt 23:9b .... for One is your Heavenly Father.
Only the WEY is close to my understanding;
Matt 23:9b (WEY) ....for One alone is your Father--the Heavenly Father.
Thank you for any assistance.
Sola Gratia,
