John 1:1 in Coptic Translation
by slimboyfat inapparently there has been quite a stir in jw apologetic circles recently about the translation of john 1:1 in the early sahidic version of john.
i don't know if this has been discussed here before - if someone could give a link to a previous thread they know about on the subject that would be great.
here is what i gather: .

In Sahidic the second "God" in John 1:1 appears with the indefinite article, lending support to the Witnesses' translation "and the Word was a god".
NOW THAT IS A FAT LIE . (THE WORD WAS GOD) JESUS IS THE WORD.
Sahidic was perhaps the first language into which the NT was translated, meaning that the Witnesses can claim support for their much reviled rendering from the very earliest translational testimony as to how this verse should be understood.
THE VERSE IS UNDERSTOOD AS THE ETERNITY AND DEITY OF JESUS.
On top of that it also appears that, whereas the first "God" in John 1:1 appears as a nomen sacrum, the second "God" in reference to Jesus is written out in full.
THERE IS ONLY ONE GOD!
If these facts have been accurately reported to JW apologetic circles, then we can reasonably expect that the Society will make much of this new support for their view in future publications.
NICE TRY... ITLEAST YOU HAVE GOOD IMAGINATION .

Rutherford couldn't have gotten his imagination while being sober...he gotta be under the influence. I gotta give it to him though, he recruited alot people, who till this day believe it's not a fairytail...eventhough he said he was only joking.
