Here is an I AM statement not found within the KJV translation
Posted : 19 Aug, 2014 03:04 AM

Hello everyone:



As i have been reading and studying the Gospel according to Matthew,this statement of Messiah concerning His being GOD Almighty has not been translated correctly from the Greek language to the KJV translation,yet a few translations have this correct.



(KJV) But straightway Jesus spake unto them, saying, Be of good cheer; it is I; be not afraid.



(KJV+) ButG1161 straightwayG2112 JesusG2424 spakeG2980 unto them,G846 saying,G3004 Be of good cheer;G2293 it isG1510 I;G1473 be not afraid.G5399 G3361



(LEB) But immediately Jesus spoke to them, saying, "Have courage, I am he! Do not be afraid!"



(LITV) But immediately Jesus spoke to them, saying, Be comforted! I AM! Do not fear.



(YLT) and immediately Jesus spake to them, saying, `Be of good courage, I am he , be not afraid.'





εγωG1473 P-1NS ειμιG1510 V-PAI-1S This section of the Greek Scriptures which you will find in the KJV with the + sign.

This reads I AM,not it is i ...



Blessings

Hello everyone:



Many people do not think there is a big difference between 'it is I' do not be afraid; and I AM do not fear.



There is a vast difference between the two,yet most of the 'christians' have NEVER been taught how to translate the word of GOD.



When sharing this with a Jew,they would say,hmmmmm 'it is i',NO BIG DEAL.

Yet had they seen 'I AM' Do not fear,there would be an uproar,as Messiah is saying that He is GOD the I AM.

Now does anyone see the difference.



Blessings
