The other thing is Waite fails to recognize is when Joseph spoke to his brethren "through an interpreter" he was speaking in Egyptian. So which was inspired? The Egyptian or the Hebrew it was written in by Moses? The only possible consistent answer is both. Therefore, translating and preserving every word is NO PROBLEM for God - even in multiple languages.
On another related topic however, speaking (e.g. when someone in the Bible was talking) is not the same as writing Scripture. The inspiration of the Bible is specific to the words written in the Bible, that is, to the written words themselves.
Jeremiah was speaking the truth by the Spirit, but the fact that we have what Baruch wrote down is the inspired Word. There is a distinction between these things, even though they are connected.
Thanks for the articulate presentation. The KJB as the English Received Text is clarifying and uplifting. I look forward to more presentations on this.

@talkingfortruth Yes, that's right.

Amen! The KJB is a new received text in English, there is no reason to make any appeal to the original languages.
