Is this true?
The term "Mara' can mean Lord and Master, but it depends on the context of the sentence AND the spelling of that term to distinguish the difference.
Look at the term "master' (mareh) in the following verses:
Matthew 18 (Verses 25, 26, 31, 32 and 34)
Matthew 20 (verses 1 and 11) - uses the term for 'Landowner' or "Master" (Mareh d'Beytha)
If you look at the word for 'Lord' (Mara/Mari or Lord/My Lord) Look at John 20:28 where the term 'Mara or Mari (Lord/My Lord) should NOT be translated 'Master'
Maran is 'Our Lord' and NOT "Master"... Mareh d'Beyta means "Master" and NOT "Our Lord".
