TB…yes we’ve had some good dialogue before and I’m glad we did! Your comments are always welcome. I have no reason to disagree with you personally, as I use multiple translations in my own study. I just prefer the 1611 as my primary source and defer to it in any circumstance.
It was difficult for me to understand at one time, until my prayers were answered to open my eyes.

Fair enough. I don't really have a quarrel with anyone reading or studying it for reasons of their own choosing, just with people who want to insist on it as if it was uniquely inspired or that it should be the standard for everyone. (Thus why I question if it's worth learning to understand for those who don't already - IMO the effort would be better spent learning Greek to read it in the original language, given that's the form of words that was actually inspired by God.)
