    John MacArthur's excellent book "Slave" is a must-read on this topic, imho.

    I do not believe in twisting the actual implication of words in God's Holy Writ to fit our modern prejudices. It is we who must mold ourselves after the manner of our Master.

    I am grateful to be God's SLAVE--- Christ bought me with his blood! We are created unto good works in Him.

    The co-existent truth is that we are now also His children. Both sides of this awesome truth about our identity in Him must be grasped.

    Why does it matter if there is a woman on the committee or not? Do you not trust them because they are all men? Would including a woman by necessity mean that you would get a better translation? My concern is not the sex of the members of the committee, but whether they are being prayerful about what they are discussing. Not to mention whether they handle the discussion within its proper context, and that they make a Spirit led and reasonable conclusion!

    Is everyone on this committee a white male? I like white males just fine (I am one myself) but it seems to me that an issue like this begs for perspective from the black community.

    ...Pp/s althought men might appear "godly" and displaying prayers here don't mean a thing...actually God says when you pray don't be as such but go to your room and do it between you and God.

    For those disputing about being a slave, not a slave, etc. Let the Scripture speak to us.

    Galatians 4:7 "So you are no longer a slave, but a son, and if a son, then an heir through God."

    i find it wonderful that these men can meet together and discuss such an important subject in such a godly and humble way, and of course doing everything through pray as well. Brilliant

    By Calvinists, for Calvinists indeed. Stil a decent translation. All translations have theological bias. Nobody has made a new translation simply to increase "readability"

    Why is there an ESV on the table? I thought they were translating FOR the ESV.

    Bible LAW says slaves are Never heirs, and Never are they children.
