It would certainly sound very strange to say in English 'a power'.Suzanne McCarthyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07033350578895908993noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19505042.post-1146548471687680672006-05-01T22:41:00.000-07:002006-05-01T22:41:00.000-07:00Suzanne,I have to make a correction to your introd...Suzanne,<BR/><BR/>I have to make a correction to your introduction. I do not work for the Salvation Army, I <I>worked</I> for the SA (though I am still involved in some volunteer work there...)<BR/><BR/>In answer to your question, 'macht' in Dutch is the same as 'power' in English. 'Een macht' is just as impossible as 'a power' in English (and sounds just as strange). However, we have the word 'krijgsmacht', which refers to the militairy, but it does not exist without the 'krijgs-' part. And I don't think a women should have the military on her head :-)<BR/><BR/>I never understood this verse in the 1951 NBG translation. More about this in my next post.Ruud Vermeijhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06947453585488967314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19505042.post-1146540272404375612006-05-01T20:24:00.000-07:002006-05-01T20:24:00.000-07:00Ruud,I want to ask why it says 'een macht' in Dutc...Ruud,<BR/><BR/>I want to ask why it says 'een macht' in Dutch, instead of just 'macht'? Does that mean the same thing as 'power' in English? Or does it mean 'a power' which of course is impossible in English, but sounds like a thing, 'a symbol of power'Suzanne McCarthyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07033350578895908993noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19505042.post-1146537351088223322006-05-01T19:35:00.000-07:002006-05-01T19:35:00.000-07:00Thanks Ruud,I like the way you use a series of que...Thanks Ruud,<BR/><BR/>I like the way you use a series of questions to introduce this topic.
