Italicized Words

Dear Jeff,

In one of your videos on Daniel 11:40-45 you stated that the translators incorrectly translated the word countries. Since the word “countries” is italicized the translators did not translate this word but added it. They were honest enough to italicize all words that they added (at least that is so in the King James Version). To state that the word was incorrectly translated throws doubt on other parts of the Bible if not the entire Bible. We have appreciated the studies very much! MP.

Response

Dear MP,

My apologies, I do understand that the italicized words, are added words, as opposed to incorrectly translated words. Thank you for the correction. Jeff.
