    Aid to Bible Understanding, MEMORIAL TOMB, 'TOMBS OPENED' AT JESUS' DEATH, page 1134, paragraph 8:

    The translation by Johannes Greber (1937) of these verses reads as follows: "Tombs were laid open, and many bodies of those buried were tossed upright. In this posture they projected from the graves and were seen by many who passed by the place on their way back to the city."

    ibid., THE WORD, "THE WORD" AS A TITLE, page 1669, paragraph 6:

    A translation by a former Roman Catholic priest, Johannes Greber (1937 ed.), renders the second appearance of the word "god" in the sentence as "a god." [John 1:1]

    Considering that the WTS later admitted that Greber used divination specifically to translate difficult passages, their citing his translation for support not only nullifes that as evidence, but serves as evidence against their conclusions.

    Great job of putting their feet in their mouths, as usual.
