"Luther rendered the word πίστει, allein durch den Glauben, by faith alone, which produced a great outcry among many of his Catholic opposers, though the sentiment is plainly implied here... The Catholic versions, even before Luther, insert the word alone. So in the Nuremburg Bible, 1483, 'Nur durch den Glauben.' And the Italian Bibles of Geneva, 1476, and of Venice, 1538, per la sola fede. The fathers often use the expression ‘man is justified by faith alone,’ ... —Charles Hodge.

Yes, but two wrongs don't make a right. Just because two *unauthorized* translations made that mistake doesn't make Luther's addition right or excusable. The fact is that neither the Greek nor the authoritative Latin translation (the Vulgate) read alone. What Luther did was patently wrong. Citing the past errors of others doesn't make his error correct.

One might even say that the mistakes prove that the Church must authorize translations so as to avoid errors.

Godspeed,

Taylor

What is the music track?  I enjoyed it almost as much as the book?

[pastormcnabb]

How would you respond to Ephesians 2:8, did Luther change this also?

[hotshotsbox]

What is the accompanying music? Amazing!

Taylor, I have responded on the Green Baggins blog, where you also copied your reply to me.
