Hi All,
Can some Aramaic reader tell me if this is possible?
I ask this, because I find the conclusion too extreme to understand.
Somebody who denies the Messiah IS a false Messiah?
Somebody could deny Him, but that does not automatically imply that this one also thinks that he himself is a Messiah!
So, I guess this:
(for example a 'Modified Etheridge')
Who is a liar, if not he who denieth that Jeshu is the Meshiha and [say that] he is a false meshiha? He who denieth the Father, denieth also the Son;
Yes, there -are- people who deny that Jeshu is the Meshiha! They however, do not claim to BE the Messiah <!-- s

SO my Question is: Is the translation above possible?
