David Alan Black On Siblings In Christ
Dr. Black has been a member of the ISV Bible translation team. But though it has the word "brothers"in the text a great deal -- he prefers "brothers and sisters", especially in 1 Thessalonians.
In his blog from 8/07 at 11:53AM he prefers :
We know, beloved brothers and sisters...
For you yourselves know, brothers and sisters ...
For you remember, brothers and sisters ...
For you became imitators, brothers and sisters ...
Having been taken away from you, brothers and sisters ...
Therefore, brothers and sisters ...
Furthermore, brothers and sisters ...
I don't want you to be ignorant, brothers and sisters ...
Now concerning the times and seasons, brothers and sisters ...
But you are not in darkness, brothers and sisters ...
We urge you, brothers and sisters ...
Now we exhort you brothers and sisters ...
Pray for us, brothers and sisters ...

Just being polite. I think most of us know what he means.

There is a great danger, when once we have adhered to one particular school of thought or adopted one particular system of theology, of reading the Bible in the light of that school or system and finding its distinctive features in what we read. … The remedy for this is to bear resolutely in mind that our systems of doctrine must be based on biblical exegesis, not imposed upon it.

Yes, I'm reading his "Jesus Paradigm" for a book review. In it he does his own translations and favors "brothers and sisters" for the Greek adelphoi.

Then why didn't he put that in the text? He was the senior editor, was he not?
