Isaiah 40:9: Dr. Clark’s literal translation is also enlightening, AO daughter that bring good tidings to Zion, get thee up into the high mountain. O thou woman that publishes good tidings to Jerusalem, lift up thy voice with strength; lift it up, be not afraid, say unto the city of Judah, Behold your God.”

Here is a list of translations of Psalms 68:11. One can certainly draw strength from. “The Lord giveth the word, the women that published the tiding are a great host” (Psalm 68:11 ASV).

“The Lord gives the word (of power): the women who bear and publish (the news) are a great host” (Amp. Bible).

“The Lord proclaims good news, or the word, women bearing good news” (New English Bible).

“The Lord gives the word; women bear the glad tidings” [a Vast Army] (New American Bible).

“The Lord gave matter to the women to tell of the great army” (The Geneva Bible).

“The Lord gave the command and many women carried the news” (The Good News Bible).

“When the Lord sent news of victory, the women who told it were a mighty host” (James Moffatts Translation).

The word “publish” in Hebrew is “basar” (Strong’s 1319), which means “to announce (glad news); messenger, preach, publish and shewforth.”

The Bible teaches a “vast army” of women proclaimers. According to Strong’s 6635, it means “A mass of persons.”

Do not have the time to sit here & respond to your cut & paste jobs all day [most of which I've already dealt w/ anyway]. Adam Clarke also believed that people lived on the moon & Judas is in heaven! He was also a staunch trinitarian [as most of your paste jobs are]....ALL of which you reject! That is, until we get to the doctrines that fit your fancy.

At the end of the day [& the innumerable copy & paste jobs]....you've yet to demonstrate what you assume & speculate. I suggest everyone on this thread get the book "Restoring Biblical Manhood and Womanhood. A Response to Evangelical Feminism." It puts to utter silence every supposed "woman preacher" doctrine that exists [it's 566 pages w/ heavy end-notes].

I'll save my interaction w/ Daniel Wallace & Douglas Moo for another day....which would only fall on deaf ears anyway! Praying that God will lead "women preacher's" to repentance for outright defiance to the written Word of God...not to mention what it does to His order of creation & headship. It's sad...very sad..................

"I do not allow a woman to teach, or to excercise authority over a man. She is to remain quiet. For Adam was first formed, then Eve....These things I write to you so that you may know how to behave yourself in the house-hold of God, which is the church...".

It's still there & isn't going anywhere...............RDP.
