A Grievous Wolf - Time for Truth

29. Were the KJV translators inspired by God when they admitted themselves that other preceding translations
were still to be considered “the word of God”, they were just working on an English translation of
those other versions and translations?
2 Timothy 3:16 states “all scripture is given by inspiration of God” not “all translators.” Grievous
Wolf can’t read simple English. For the remainder of Question 29, see in answer Dr Mrs Riplinger’s
statement under Question 28 from In Awe of Thy Word pp 560ff, her emphases ““Seven” times “they
purge…and purify it…” (Ezek. 43:26) – not eight. The KJV translators did not see their translation as
one in the midst of a chain of ever evolving translations.”
See also the detailed remarks under Question 28 with respect to the seven-fold purification of the scriptures,
including the contribution to that purification process of the pre-1611 English Bibles, as for example
Dr Mrs Riplinger sets out on p 33 and in Parts 5, 6 of In Awe of Thy Word.
See also the scriptural examples listed under Question 28 with respect to “What God hath wrought!”
Number 23:23 but “in process of time” Exodus 2:23, not like that “which came up in a night” Jonah
4:10.
30. Do you believe that the Hebrew and Greek used for the KJV are “the word of God”?
Dr Laurence Vance has shown in The Bible Believer’s Bulletin, February 2003, June 2006 how Psalm
12:6, 7 was fulfilled in the broad sweep of history by means of:
A received Hebrew text, 1800 BC to 389 BC
A received Aramaic text at the same time (Genesis, Daniel, etc.)
A received Greek text from AD 40 to AD 90
A received Syrian text from AD 120 to AD 200
A received Latin text from AD 150 to AD 1500
A received German text from AD 1500 to AD 2006
A received English text from AD 1611 to AD 2006 (2011+)
That analysis would satisfy a genuine Bible believer, although it may not satisfy Grievous Wolf.
31. Are you aware that the Hebrew and Greek texts themselves are not pure and errors have been found in
both the Hebrew texts and the Septuagint Greek version? How then can underlying the KJV with the
errors in these texts be considered inspired by God?
It is up to Grievous Wolf to point out these errors and to show where they occur in the 1611 Holy Bible,
if he thinks he can do so. He has failed to do so for Question 31.
Dr Laurence Vance in King James His Bible and Its Translators pp 40-41 identifies the published Hebrew
and Greek source materials that the King James translators used. They included the Soncino,
Bomberg, Pratensis, ben Chayim and Stephanus Hebrew Old Testaments together with the Complutensian,
Antwerp and Nuremberg Polyglot Bibles containing all or part of the Hebrew Old Testament* and
the Greek New Testament Editions of Erasmus, Colinaeus, Stephanus and Beza.
*The Nuremberg Polyglot contains only the Books of Genesis to Ruth plus the Psalms.

Those are the published sources that Grievous Wolf must access in order to identify the errors that he
thinks they contain that were carried over into the 1611 Holy Bible. He has not done so. On his site he
charges the 1611 Holy Bible with error in Exodus 20:13, 32:14, Leviticus 6:21, 8:28, 17:6, 23:18, 1
Samuel 10:24, 2 Samuel 16:16, 1 Kings 1:25, 20:38, Isaiah 14:12, Jeremiah 18:8, 10, Amos 7:6, Jonah
3:10, Luke 18:12, Acts 2:38, 12:4, 19:37, 22:16, Romans 3:4, 6, 31, 6:2, 15, 7:7, 13, 9:14, 11:1, 13, 1
Corinthians 6:15, Galatians 2:17, 3:21, 24, 6:14, James 2:3, 36 verses in all*.
*Grievous Wolf’s so-called errors in the 1611 Holy Bible will be answered in a later compilation, D.V.
However, he does not state how any of those verses are in error in the published Hebrew and Greek
sources listed above such that those errors were then carried over into the 1611 Holy Bible. That is a
