In the meantime, I will thank you in advance to not post any more racist or insensitive things on our forum. I'm not sure what the sex, nationality or race was of the translators of Revelation 7:9, but here goes anyway: "a great multitude that no one could number, from every nation, from all tribes and peoples and languages". This is they way things are going to end for eternity....better get used to it now.
I haven't had my first cup of coffee yet, so don't hold me to any of this.....
First to question God: Adam - Male
First to murder: Cain - Male
First to get drunk: Noah - Male
First to commit sexual sin: Sodom and Gomorrah - Males
First to murder to take another person's spouse: David - Male
(shall I go on?)

First to suffer consequence of the Fall: Eve - A Woman
First recorded heroes to save the Jewish people: Women (gave birth before Egyptians could kill Hebrew babies)
First recorded single hero to save the Jewish people: Esther - A Woman
First to the empty tomb of Jesus: Mary - A Woman
First ex-Local Churcher to write a book helping former members: Jane Anderson - A Woman

There is nothing racist about my post. It is the ones who say "the bible has no women translators, so we must find some" who are the ones who see the divisions. To me this idea of women translators of the bible is coming from the liberal and populist agenda, not the bible itself (which is written by men, including God Himself who is a man). It seems you subscribe to this agenda yourself. In fact, if people truly believed in what the bible says about no male or female in Christ we would not be discussing about this male or female translator nonsense.
Romans 12:2 Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is--his good, pleasing and perfect will.
