My focus is on surrendering to the Almighty, not wasting my time in the books while the world falls apart when He has made His Word and His will perfectly clear for us without having to idolize a translation of the Scripture that fits our useless theological OCD.

I won't waste my time commenting further. If you can't see what you are to do from the translations available, then may G-d have mercy on your soul. Other cultures do just fine with ONE translation, let alone the many to be distracted by. And so did we with all the great revivals and holiness movements using nothing but a KJV. And if we aren't walking in holiness ourselves, then we need to stop, take a deep moral inventory, and clean the house before we decide to venture out with criticisms and ideas. The Hebrew Roots movement utterly fails in this. But Mashiach Himself says, first we must take the plank out of our own eyes, and then we may address the specks...
