Is there a bible translation that doesn't make Yahweh out to be some sort of eldritch abomination?

One without him f*cking with Job and ordering all firstborns killed and flooding the world...?

The King James Bible is the only real HOLY Bible. The others are corruptions of God's Word.


The KJB is also the greatest selling book of all-time.Charlie Darwin's fantasy novel "On the Origin of Species" certainly doesn't hold a candle to it lol.

I know because it is the only one translated directly from the original texts.

I know thru faith. How do you know that what history books tell us today are actually accurate? You don't. You have faith that they are.

Yep, I get that. So what? People choose to put faith in whatever they choose as being true.I believe what history books tell us for the most part; just think that scriptural texts are just as accurate if not moreso.

Okay but don't you think that...for example, the first born thing. Don't you think that would of been recorded in history if all the first borns were killed by angels?

It would be people of all ages being slain via supernatural means. Cuz yeah some of the stuff in scripture can be matched with historical documents, etc. Some of the people mentioned were real people.

Also, how can you be sure these supernatural beings are even what they claim? Satan has fooled people before, right?

Are you referring to the male children of Jewish slaves being killed in Egypt by the pharaoh? If so, yes, that is a documented event listed in the Bible. It wasn't just the firstborns though.... it was all male children (under a certain age , iirc).

Not getting the point u r trying to make.

It has been a while since I read the bible, but I think in response to what you just described God had angels kill all the first borns of Egyptians.

So is there any historical basis for that?

Again, not sure what u r saying here. The Bible is what says that angels are actually angels. The Bible is the Word of God. Looks like you're problem is with the authority of the Bible itself. That is something we will never agree on though so it's kind of pointless to argue over it.

Yes, it is documented in the Bible. Again, I refer you back to my previous post. You doubt the history in the Bible and I don't. We will never change each other's mind over this.

What I'm saying is don't you think the first born of all Egyptians being slain in one night would have been documented in texts other than the bible?
