Bible Bloopers
BIBLE BLOOPERS
These unholy howlers actually made it into print Translators who've been working on The Bible since the 15th Century have their off days, too. Before mechanical printing began in A.D. 1450, writers painstakingly hand-copied ancient literature in Latin, Greek, Hebrew and Aramaic into English. An argument with the wife, a late night drinking or problems with a rebellious teen at home can mean mistakes at work - and bloopers in the Good Book. Here are just a few that have appeared in various editions of the Bible over the years:
And God called the dry land Earth, and the gathering together of the waters He called Sears.
It should be: . . . and the gathering of the waters He called Seas. - Genesis 1:10
Blessed is he who considers The Doors.
It should be: Blessed is he who considers the poor. - Psalms 41:1
Go now, and sin some more.
It should be: Go now, and sin no more. - John 8:11
Let the children first be killed.
It should be: Let the children first be filled. - Mark 7:27
He hath ears to leer, let him leer.
It should be: He hath ears to hear, let him hear. - Matthew 11:11
He who is without sin among you, should go forth and get stoned.
It should be: He who is without sin among you, let him throw the first stone --John 8:7
I will that women adorn themselves in modern apparel.
It should be: I will that adornthemselves in modest apparel. -- 1 Timothy 2:9
You shall have no other hogs before me.
It should be: You shall have no other gods before me. -- Deuteronomy 5:7
