A little embarrased!

I have such a small following on this blog I know there is no requirement for me to go back and fix things but I did see a glaring error on my post for John 3:16. I talked about the word play Jesus uses between the words wind and spirit. I pointed out that in Greek He uses the same word for to compare the actions of the two. The mistake I made was instead of referring to the Greek "pneuma," I kept using the Hebrew "ruach."

Just so people know I am not fluent in either language and have a peripheral understanding from using some Greek and Hebrew tools available online as well as referencing commentaries. I do not believe the switch would have ever gotten me in trouble or was in any way dishonest but I would like to be a person who is careful about the way he handles the word of God, especially in a sphere as public as the interwebs.

Have a great "pneuma," filled week!
