Another reason to ditch the NIV.

I will say, though, that I try to find the “walk-out” in situations like this. When Judas chided Yeshuah about letting the woman break the alabaster box of oil over his head, he stated that the oil could have been sold and the money given to the...

The moment translators move away from trying to do a word-for-word translation, the truth suffers. Those that intentionally go down the dynamic equivalence road are substituting their personal interpretation for what stands written, in reality...
