It's a term I'm sure you're well aware of. I mixed it up because Matthew uses "donkey" and Mark uses "colt." But you're avoiding the issue again and refusing to answer any questions put to you. Does the "he" in the KJV version of Mark 11:3 ("say ye that the Lord hath need of him") refer to the animal, the animal's owner, or someone (something) else? Please do not respond unless you can answer this simple question. > > > > C'mon Jeff! You know what I meant.

And an even poorer interpretation if you honestly think that "simplicity" means taking a strictly literal translation of every verse in the Bible. That is truly a "simple" (aka not wise) interpretation. You are taking the verse out of context and distorting its meaning just for one-up-man-ship. > > > > What is your purpose in trying to contradict that?

You haven't contributed anything of value to this discussion. You are simply being contentious. But avoid foolish questions, and genealogies, and contentions, and strivings about the law; for they are unprofitable and vain. A man that is an heretick after the first and second admonition reject; Knowing that he that is such is subverted, and sinneth, being condemned of himself.
