Setting the Mind on the Spirit - The Vanishing Verb

Randomnly selecting other translations of Roman 8:6-7. Most do not support the Rcv translation. The only one I've come across that does is Mounce Reverse-Interlinear New Testament

"To set the mind on the flesh leads to death, but to set the mind on the Spirit brings life and peace,"

By contrast Young's Literal Translation says:

"for the mind of the flesh [is] death, and the mind of the Spirit -- life and peace;"

I remember from my teenage years in the early 80's, I was taught all other Bible tranlations were considered sub-standard to the Recovery's Bible translation. Using King James was the standard until the Old Testament had a Recovery translation. If you were to read an alternative translation, Darby was suggested.
