How interesting it was yesterday to discover that the verses in the Ikinyrwandan translated Bible were not the same as the NIV translation in English! AND it was a bit disconcerting how the phrasing differences changed the meaning for some verses. I think Wycliffe needs to do a Ikinyrwandan version! SOON!
We had trouble in class today going over the many prophecies that related to the coming Deliverer (GOD HIMSELF! in the PERSON OF JESUS.) So many of the verses were off by one verse.....especially the ones in the Prophets. Interesting! So the chart we made that had the verse, the prophetic detail about THE DELIVERER, and where in the NT it is fulfilled had to be re-written! Weird!
It was a bit hard also because of how the writer WHO WAS writing what GOD SAID, 1000 to 700 years BEFORE the FACT was also writing about the events of the day or the not too distant day also. So, yesterday was good! It was so encouraging to see these students pouring over the Word and marking the verse, writing an explanation......INVOLVED! in learning
got to go...students are here.
