Burnishing Bigotry - 3rd edition

Question 03) And what are we to do when we find passages of Scripture – significant
portions of the Word of God – that are still fully untranslatable?
*… like 1 Samuel 13:1, which to this day still reads, ―Saul was ____ years old when he
began to reign; and he reigned ____ and two years over Israel‖?
*… or like Proverbs 11:30, which simultaneously reads as, ―The fruit of the righteous is a
tree of life, but violence takes lives away‖ (NRSV), and also ―The righteous shall never be
removed, but the wicked shall not inhabit the earth‖ (KJV), and also ―The fruit of the righteous
is a tree of life, but he who wins souls is wise‖ (NIV)?
*… and like John 8:25, the accurate translation of which to this day resides somewhere
between ―Why do I speak to you at all‖ and ―The beginning, that which I also say to you‖?
What are we to do in such cases, my dear? How are we to even know which verses have
been translated accurately and which are still not fully understandable to humankind? And what
are we to do with such verses once we discover them? How are we to heed their call or respect
their message when no one on Earth currently knows what their message truly is or what they are
truly calling for us to know or do?
Question 04) And what happens when two or more verses – two or more portions of the
unalterable & ―infallible‖ Word of God – directly contradict one another, as is the case in over
400 instances within the Bible‘s texts? [see the image below &/or the larger, more complete display
thereof on pages 378-379 herein] … What are we to do in such instances, Lucy? We cannot adhere
to or believe in both sides of those contradictions without destroying the infallibility of
God‘s Word, so how are we to know which verses to believe and which to discard?
How are we to know which verses are ―of God‖ and which are merely ―of man‖?
