From ffbf6452d009af95a8980413c48edd311cb9915a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Hanker10 Date: Fri, 1 Jul 2016 12:00:33 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] Mt 23:13 changed wording about kingdom Mt 23:13 changed wording about kingdom from: "because you keep people from accepting him to rule over them." to what you see. I restored the word "heaven" since this is an important concept in Matthew that should not be lost. The rule of heaven includes Jesus, the Christ, as ruler and as God which is part of Matthew's distinct message compared to the other gospels. --- 41-MAT/23.usfm | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/41-MAT/23.usfm b/41-MAT/23.usfm index daffccf3..71195e63 100644 --- a/41-MAT/23.usfm +++ b/41-MAT/23.usfm @@ -30,7 +30,7 @@ \s5 \p -\v 13-14 "You teachers of the law and you Pharisees, you are hypocrites!
