Question
May this:
ὥσπερ γὰρ διὰ τῆς παρακοῆς τοῦ ἑνὸς ἀνθρώπου ἁμαρτωλοὶ κατεστάθησαν οἱ πολλοί, οὕτω καὶ διὰ τῆς ὑπακοῆς τοῦ ἑνὸς δίκαιοι κατασταθήσονται οἱ πολλοί.
Be interpreted as:
"So by way of the same manner as one man's disobedience the many were made sinners, this way also through the obedience of the one, so shall the many be made righteous."
Answer
Hi Darin
This is from Romans 5:19
The translation given by scholars is as follows
1. KING JAMES VERSION
"For as by one man's disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous."
2. NEW INTERNATIONAL VERSION
"For just as through the disobedience of the one man the many were made sinners, so also through the obedience of the one man the many will be made righteous."
The above are correct translations of this verse.
Compare yours with these to see where the differences are. I consider the above verses excellent translations of the original Greek.
Kind regards
George
