“It is the character of this channel to attempt to answer patiently charges that are clearly wrong, even ridiculous. Let us begin our discussion of Revelation 13:8.” - Mark Ward

“They are changing the 2001 ESV for the 2025 edition—and that’s after changes in 2007, 2011, and 2016. But I’m not alarmed, and I don’t think you should be.” - Mark Ward

“The ESV’s 2016 edition…: ‘Your desire shall be contrary to your husband, but he shall rule over you.’ In the 2025 revision, the verse will revert to its 2001 translation: ‘Your desire shall be for your husband, and he shall rule over you.’” - CPost
