Isaiah 43.20 |
|
to genoV mou to eklekton |
genoV eklekton |
|
to my chosen race |
an elect race |
to my people, my chosen |
| Comments: “Chosen” and “elect” reflect the same Greek word. The MT carries the same meaning. UBS may consider this a discrepancy between the NT and the MT because of word order. Apparently, the MT has “my chosen people,” while 1QIsaa provides “my people, my chosen.” The latter order reflects the Greek. (This explanation seems very unlikely.) |
