1 Corinthians 8:6
#19
I shall try my best:

"ok, I understand, there is a word there that can be utilized in several different ways, "and" is just one of them."

Correct, if that.

"If I'm right, the greek has a word that can be utilized in several different ways.
"
Yes, kai, can be rendered "and" or "even". It turns out it's all irrelivant in the Aramaic anyway <!-- sWink --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/wink1.gif" alt="Wink" title="Wink" /><!-- sWink -->

""Ok, I'm understanding that the word used for "Lord," MarYah, means GOD in the OT. This does beg the question as to why there are several translators utilizing Lord here though?!?
""

Many possibilities, such as lack of understanding (Etehridge and Murdock) or bias (Lamsa). You see what Paul puts. The word is best untranslated. Lord is incorrect, because that would just be "Mara", as in "Mar Eshai Shimmun".

"Does this word actually mean Lord in the NT and translating it to GOD would be incorrect for NT usage?"

No. Lord is just "Mara". MarYah is something different altogether. Firstly, nobody else is EVER called MarYah. Secondly, the POT and PNT has many references to God as "MarYah". Thirdly, [font=Estrangelo (V1.1)]0y[/font] is undisputedly from YHWH as is seen in many names like Jeremiah, Isaiah etc. Many can be "Mar", but only one can be "MarYah". Fourthly (this is opinion, I wonder what Paul thinks), Mar is followed by a name, in this case the name is Yah which is short for YHWH.
