I do not know if that is true, but looking at the New World Translation
it is very different from the other what people might call regular translations.
What would you say to that Robbie?
Now you've done it.
Prepare for robbie to trot out his high horse and to ride up and down the countryside on it.
He'll tell you that not only is the NWT the most accurate translation but that they've "restored" the "true" meaning of the original Hebrew and Greek. (Yes, even though they've added the word "Jehovah" to the New Testament 237 times where the extant texts use only the Greek words kurios and theos. )
You know, just like he claims the JWs are the only "true" Christians and the rest of us are charlatans. (This is how he gets around Jesus' commandment to show love toward one's Christian brothers. )
"Quack, quack," robbie. "Quack, quack." (Meaning if it looks like a duck and sounds like a duck, guess what, it's probably a duck. )
