We do NOT change the Word of God
We REVEAL it in all its original depth
Your current Bible is valuable. This is NOT a replacement.
It is the perfect companion that reveals the Greek meanings no translation can fully capture.
See the difference with your own eyes:
Modern Bible vs. original Scripture
Matthew 19:24
Modern Bible (KJV / common versions):
"It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God."
Original Greek (Koine):
πάλιν δὲ λέγω ὑμῖν, εὐκοπώτερόν ἐστιν κάμηλον (kamēlon) διὰ τρήματος ῥαφίδος εἰσελθεῖν, ἢ πλούσιον εἰς τὴν βασιλείαν τοῦ θεοῦ.
Variation in ancient manuscripts:
Instead of κάμηλον (kamēlon) = camel, some record κάμιλον (kamilon) = a thick ship's rope.
"It is easier for a thick rope to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God."
Key difference:
With "camel" → an absolute impossibility.
With "thick rope" → a difficult task, but possible if unravelled strand by strand.
Jesus isn't saying it's impossible for the rich man, but that he must untie himself, fiber by fiber, from his attachment to wealth.
Luke 14:26
Modern Bible:
"If any man come to me, and hate not his father, mother, wife, children, brothers… he cannot be my disciple."
Original Greek (Koine):
ἐὰν τις ἔρχεται πρός με καὶ οὐ μισεῖ (miseí) τὸν πατέρα ἑαυτοῦ καὶ τὴν μητέρα καὶ τὴν γυναῖκα καὶ τὰ τέκνα… οὐ δύναται εἶναί μου μαθητής.
"If anyone comes to me and does not love less / give lower priority to his father, mother, wife, children… he cannot be my disciple."
Key difference:
"Hate" in English sounds like literal hatred.
The Greek miseó means "to love less, to place another above".
Jesus is not asking for hatred, but for absolute priority toward Him.
John 21:17
Modern Bible (NIV):
"Jesus asked him the third time: Simon son of John, do you love me? Peter answered: Lord, you know all things; you know that I love you."
Original Greek (Koine):
λέγει αὐτῷ τὸ τρίτον· Σίμων Ἰωνᾶ, ἀγαπᾷς με; λυπεῖται ὁ Πέτρος… καὶ λέγει αὐτῷ· Κύριε, σὺ πάντα οἶδας, σὺ γινώσκεις ὅτι φιλῶ σε.
ἀγαπάω (agapáō) = to love unconditionally.
φιλέω (philéō) = to love as a friend, with human affection.
Jesus: "Do you love me with unconditional love (agape)?"
Peter: "Lord, you know I love you as a friend (phileo)."
Jesus (third time): "Do you love me as a friend (phileo)?"children… he cannot be my disciple."
Key difference:
Modern translations reduce everything to "do you love me". But the Greek shows the intimate moment where Jesus comes down to Peter's level, accepting his limited human love.
A moving, profound detail that is lost in modern Bibles.
