interpretation

A Scary Word 

no matter who does it for you.  It has been done for you.  Even the translators interpreted the Greek word as well as the English word that you are reading.  Were they inspired by God?  All sixty English translations could not have been because they are all significantly different.  Who can you trust?  What can you trust?

A Test – 

a word not found is some bible translations.  A key word that explains what we are doing here.  The NABRE is the only version that has it.  TEST.  We are being tested.  We have free will.  It must be tested.

in Daniel

A King of the South 

and his daughter that fits with the king of the north and the Apocalypse.  The king of the south is Mohammed and his daughter is Fatimah. The king of the north is Muawiyah who was one of Mohammed’s commanders, not princes as some translations would have it.  This was the beginning of the Umayyad Caliphate, a dynasty that placed the abomination.

A Bigger Problem

compared to the problem with interpretation if you are looking for the king of the north.  There are eight different words in 52 different translations:  princes 24, commanders 10, officers 7, officials 5, generals 2, leaders 2, principalities 1, subordinates 1.  The word prince suggests a family member unlike the other seven words which have a common meaning.  Makes you wonder about words used in other parts of the bible.  These are major differences in words used before you get to the problem of interpreting them.  Reader beware.
