I am still fascinated with this re-direct. Being that it's one of my very favorite verses, I am struck by one thought with it right now. Why did TS re-direct to this particular Bible site? We have seen BibleGateway.com before. I am not totally sure we have seen this site. It seems familiar to me. However, it might be my own searching that lead me to it before now.
What I find interesting, and why I think TS used this site for this verse in particular is there are many translations of the different Bibles, all on the main page. Here it is so you can easily see it:
http://bible.cc/1_corinthians/13-13.htm
With BibleGateway.com you see the verse fine, however, you need to search to find different translations:
http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=1%20Corinthians+13:13&version=NIV
While it's easy enough to search the site for the translations, it's even easier to see them on the site TS used. They are all right in front of our eyes. When I see the bible.cc page, I see instantly that one thing can be translated many, many different ways, yet they all mean the same thing. Plus, if you scroll down the site there is really good commentary provided. It's really interesting to read these views.
This bible.cc site is a perfect demonstration of how words from many sources can mean the same thing. It's this forum with a bow on it! We have so many different view points, so many different translations of what this hoax is or is not. Yet, at the end of the day....we still have the main idea to mean the same. In other words, we all think differently and still come up with the same ending.....hoax. That's why TS used that site in particular......we are all different, yet we are one.
I have come to determine that Love is the greatest because it's the only true gift from God, in my opinion. Faith and Hope are man-developed feelings....you need love to justify having either of them in your heart. But, Love can survive without Faith and Hope....people loose those all the time, yet still have Love, still have charity in their hearts. For me, it's God's perfect gift.
One other interesting side-note about this site......it lists 18 different sources or versions of this verse. 18 has been a reoccurring number here.....I instantly remember Murray's shirt with 18 on it. Sim......didn't you do an 18 montage? I seem to recall something like that.
Anyways.....just thinking out loud really. I was struck by the "why this site?" question and here I am, lol.
Hey, this was post-tea, but pre-coffee....what can I say : )
Have a beautiful day....Sim, you and all of Romania remain in my thoughts and prayers....love you all so much!
Blessings Always
