Sean, when are you going to answer our original questions?

That’s what’s next?

Please explain for us how Strongs redefined words?

Show us which ones?

What were the changes from the 1st century Greek to the 20th century Greek?

Tell us what were the changes from the 1st century English to the 20th century English?

Linear B is a syllabic script that was used for writing Mycenaean Greek, the earliest attested form of Greek. The script predates the Greek alphabet by several centuries. The oldest Mycenaean writing dates to about 1450 BC.[1] It is descended from the older Linear A, an undeciphered earlier script used for writing the Minoan language, as is the later Cypriot syllabary, which also recorded Greek. Linear B, found mainly in the palace archives at Knossos, Cydonia,[2] Pylos, Thebes and Mycenae,[3] disappeared with the fall of Mycenaean civilization during the Late Bronze Age collapse. The succeeding period, known as the Greek Dark Ages, provides no evidence of the use of writing. It is also the only one of the prehistoric Aegean scripts to have been deciphered, by English architect and self-taught linguist Michael Ventris.[4]

Linear B consists of around 87 syllabic signs and over 100 ideographic signs. These ideograms or "signifying" signs symbolize objects or commodities. They have no phonetic value and are never used as word signs in writing a sentence.

The application of Linear B appears to have been confined to administrative contexts. In all the thousands of clay tablets, a relatively small number of different "hands" have been detected: 45 in Pylos (west coast of the Peloponnese, in southern Greece) and 66 in Knossos (Crete).[5] It is possible that the script was used only by a guild of professional scribes who served the central palaces.[citation needed] Once the palaces were destroyed, the script disappeared.[

Sean? Do you understand what you bolded?

If yes, explain what it means.

Huh?
Sean?

Do you know that a dictionary isn't a new invention?

Do you understand that ancient civilizations had dictionaries and lexicons?
Sumerian–Akkadian had bilingual wordlists. Egyptians also had trilingual inscriptions. The Rosetta Stone was such a trilingual inscription (hieroglyphic, demotic and Greek), and therefore Jean-François Champollion deciphered hieroglyphs in 1822. He didn't guess, he read the writings in Greek, and demotic to understand the hieroglyphs.

But, why in these posts are you unable to prove any of your statements?

If you want perfect and exact results, you had to live 4000 years and explain it all to modern scholars.

I am not so dumb as to watch programs on TV and believe these guys as they read hieroglyphics and expect them to read it like the original writers intended, some 3000 years or more prior to their lives.

They are all just teaching each other rehearsed and agreed upon materials, with no unbroken fact trails to lead them back to these ancient languages.

I am sure they are KINDA right, but not EXACTLY right.

Kinda right is fine for secular ideas, but not for Biblical ideas.(with the exception of preterism)...LOL
This post has to be one of your most momentous examples of your inability to reason. Sean, kinda right in ancient language decipher isn't good in religion or secular. Do you know why? I already know the answer. Sean, you are what they call, a special kind of stupid. You are the individual in a church family who walks up to the visiting preacher to talk his ear off. You do this not to relay anything note worthy to the hearer, but to hear the sound of your own voice. Just like when you supposedly visited all those pastors in your area. It was to break the bread of the Word. But to hear the sound of your own voice. To get it off your chest so to speak. When you debated Truthseeker71's group. It wasn't to impart knowledge and teaching. It was to win a game called religious argument. You watch documentaries, and see the Egyptologist read the hieroglyphs and judge him incorrect? Sean, you haven't the foggiest idea how translation is even done. You believe that the KJV scholars stood around saying to each other "what do you think we should call σπανακοτυρόπιτα? Everyone, who wants to call it spinach pie? OK, lets see raised hands!" Sean, that's how a Bible translation would be in your world where Lil' Abner and Daisy Mae are your King and Queen.

Re: Donald Trump 666 to usher in the Mark of the B

His NAME is Jesus!

"For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love,
and of a sound mind."


power: which is the gospel that saves;
love: by which we must IMPART the gospel that saves;
sound mind: exercising self-control: which is to control our tongue (keyboard)!

If you adopt it as Bible truth it is manna from heaven. You will cram it down unsuspecting throats of saints whether they like it or not. Yes, Sean you don't care, and we are the recipients of your careless behavior. Go away, you soul sucking religious nutjob.

Here you go folks, Seanis now admitting that his way of determining right or wrong concerning the Biblical is strictly faith based. Which means he doesn't KNOW the KJV is correct and exact, he hopes it is. He doesn't know that his eschatology (whatever that may be at the time) is correct and exact, he just hopes it is, he doesn't KNOW that not tithing is correct, he just hopes it is, Sean doesn't know that God is two separate persons indwelling each other, he just hopes its truth. In short, Sean believes that we just need to have faith that our decided opinions pass the grade with God. Sean is admitting to us that we can't know for sure? Sean, with the above quote, why would you even get into a debate with anyone about anything? If our decisions were all merely faith based and we have to hope we are right? Tell you what Sean, don't let your new grandchild grow up looking at the back of your head while you are on the computer. The only thing this forum has done for you is prove to a larger audience that you are cracked. Go, spend some quality time with the family. Take your mother in law out to dinner.

Re: Donald Trump 666 to usher in the Mark of the B

Of course it is faith based.

Just like you.

You believe every man with a PHD in his field is 100% accurate.

Your Geologist that teaches the earth and humans are multiple billions of years old is gospel to you.

All of these "specialists" are your elders in higher learning and they are never wrong, nor can be.

I really should not question the PHD in front of you, lest I damage your faith in higher learning and you backslide from their teachings.

Your gospel of Mr. Strong has Greek words and a wonderful variety of English meanings, many which are not in the KJV.

It is a smorgasbord of redefinitions for the fun loving closet translator and minister that is always bringing something new and different to a congregation that is bored stiff with his teachings .,...



Also, I dont read Greek.

It has already been translated into English by proper translators in 1611 for me.

I read English.

I did, most of the modern PHD's are KINDA right.

The ancient translators were God sent, to carve a path for the KJV....the final translation ordained by God.
