Someone reported this as a fake bible quote
https://biblehub.com/revelation/18-23.htm
If you scroll down you can see ΟΞ±ΟμακΡίᾳ (pharmakeia) so I'll leave this be.
Yeah I'm not going to remove a post on something I'm not going to dig that deeply into. Just fight it out in the comments if you have too.
This is essentially correct. I figured it was a translation thing.
And English is one of the most flexible languages in the world because it roots in so many other languages, correct!
BUT WE'RE A QULT THO BRUH
It is not fake. People that are reporting it as fake are doing so with good will. The English translation of the greek word is the problem. We have to remember that the bible In the Original Language is the written word of God. This verse can be used as an example. Let's say the dark side did not want Christians to connect this verse to any drugs. They could have influenced the translators to use a different english word which while still a good translation is not complete.
I am not saying this happened in this case but you can see that if evil wanted to change the Word of God (in our minds) evil could just change the english language a little.
Here is another example that I believe was done on purpose. There are 5 greek words in the new testament that are translated into one English word. It is a MAJOR deal. The english word is LOVE.
So because of those other words being combined into the one word love we get lost in understanding what the Love of God really means.
4 of the words translated into love concern how we Fell towards something or someone else.
1 Word translated Love is more aligned with commitment, determination. Feelings are not involved. ( feeling could be there of course but they can also come and go) That greek word is Agape.
That word is of course The word concerning the Love of God and the Love we are to seek
Whatever floats your boat...
