Re: Jesus Didn't Declare All Foods Clean
quote:
Please show me clearly the Greek that supports this quote that in saying this Jesus declared all foods clean.
I've shown you that it isn't in the Greek. Mark 7:19 Greek

But that isn't entirely true, is it ? It isn't a word for word translation of the Greek, but we can see the words that it is translated from, which, word for word, say "purifying all the food", according to the page you cite.
Now, it certainly seems to me that this translation is possible, even plausible, and presumably it does to the people who actually carried out the translation.
So, it is disingenuous to claim that it isn't there. The issue is one of interpretation and correct translation.
