Sanitized


According from an anonymous commenter, Isaiah 40:22...

Isaiah 40:22 The Message (MSG) 21-24 Have you not been paying attention? Have you not been listening? Haven’t you heard these stories all your life? Don’t you understand the foundation of all things? God sits high above the round ball of earth. The people look like mere ants."

Weh?

Ok, so he quote from The Message. According to the Wiki: The Message: The Bible in Contemporary Language was created by Eugene H. Peterson and published in segments from 1993 to 2002. It is an idiomatic translation of the original languages of the Bible.

And the problem?

Well, it seems Mr. Paterson just included his own interpretation to the scriptures. Here's a good example:


Mr. Paterson has the habit of paraphrasing the Bible to make it sound... er, acceptable to modern standard. In short, he's trying to sanitized it.  Here are other examples:



So what happened to wives must "subject themselves to their husbands?"

Nice...




So that is how to put the dust inside the carpet.
