As to 2 Kings 22:23, “na'ar” can indeed be translate as “young man”. In fact, it is translated as such 76 times in the AV. However, it is placed in combination with “qatan”, which means “small” or “little”. Combined, the best rendering then is “small children” or “small boys”.

Sorry IS, but the Hebrew scriptures were written to Hebrew people, not Christians. Christians just hijacked them, retranslated, and reinterpreted for their own purposes. Isaiah 45:7 is a thorn in the fundamentalist Christian's side. Perhaps the thorn Paul had was that the OT was still in existence?

Quote (Stu @ April 24 2008,03:39)I take it from your snide tone of voice that you don’t approve of carbon dating. Why not, do tell?Because it shows things are older than the biblical record of creation?

And to be honest, there are probably forum members that would like to see some of us burned on a stake even today .

Really Cato, Yahweh could not help it. It seems he never could create a human that did not express both good and evil, so he was full of regret.Isa 45:7 I form the light, and create darkness; I make peace, and create evil; I am the LORD, that doeth all these things.
