Hi! Thanks for dropping in. You are viewing my personal notes from my study of the NWT. I'm a mom...a Christian...a student of the Bible...and a family member of Jehovah's Witnesses. (Never been one myself) Please understand, my motive is not to bash anyone's faith, but in these short studies, to show examples of how the NWT is strategically translated to conform to watchtower teaching at the expense of what scripture really says. I'll show you how Watchtower's own Kingdom Interlinear Greek text agrees with my Bible (and all the English translations) far more closely than it's own New World Translation. I'm not a scholar...I don't speak Greek or Hebrew. I can only use the tools available to an English speaker (just like anyone else). But what I have found may surprise you. I hope you will consider my research a labor of love...because that's what it is. This is just me studying to be equipped to witness to my witness family and any other witness who will listen. My prayer is that Jehovah would reveal the truth about "the truth" -WordGirl

Jehovah yes! Jehovah no!

This is an example of NWT translating Jehovah when the Origional word was not Jehovah. Am I saying that David couldn’t have written Jehovah instead of Elohim? No. Am I saying that we couldn’t conclude that Elohim is Jehovah? No. So what’s my point? Well the point is, we have an English translation and…

My Lord and my God

This is actually NOT a twist in translation. The NWT matches all the other translations in this verse. They have no choice because the Greek is crystal clear. (See below) But what to JWs say about this? Well this is what I’ve heard them say: “Thomas said “my Lord” …and then he looked up to…
