Hi all, :wave:
I have been reading the aramaic peshitta (hi thadman :wave:) translated into english and i was browsing throw galatians when i saw the following verse:
"But these are parables of the two covenants: the one which was from Mount Sinai bringing forth into bondage, which is Hagar: for Hagar is Mount Sinai which is in Arabia, and answers to this Urishlem, and serves in bondage, she and her children. But she, Urishlem the high, is the free, who is our mother."
this is galatians 4:24-26. but the nasb reads:
"This is allegorically speaking, for these women are two covenants: one proceeding from Mount Sinai bearing children who are to be slaves; she is Hagar. Now this Hagar is Mount Sinai in Arabia and corresponds to the present Jerusalem, for she is in slavery with her children. But the Jerusalem above is free; she is our mother."
Peshitta says Hagar serves Jerusalem Greek text says Hagar IS Jerusalem then goes on talking about Jerusalem above when Aramaic says Jerusalem the high. Did i understand this right? I'm so mad because this sounds like scripture manipulation to backup roplacement theology. :mad:
In His love (but very mad),
