  Cantleave,

  If you go to:

  http://www.watchtowerwiki.org/files/Scholastic_Dishonesty_Watchtower.pdf

  go to pages #4, 6 - 14 (heading: "John 1:1") and let me know if the information provided there is any help.

  It's hard to believe that all of those "celebrated WT scholars" would make such foolish errors.

  Thank you, Doug.

  Excellent Thread thanks for posting and providing the context. The more I learn about the WTS use of acedemic reference the more I want to award a big fat F- for scholarly effort.

  Well, Japanese people also know the contents of that letter well, and the Japanese translation is also made.

  But, of course, the Governing Body never teaches followers this fact.
