The “Great Jigsaw Puzzle” is the Holy Scriptures otherwise known as The Word and The Holy Bible. They are a puzzle for Mankind to learn the Truth about what is going on in creation. Everything in The Word is interconnected with everything else that’s written. It is put together in such a way that it is jigsawed as a puzzle so that the pieces have to be placed within to comprehend the entirety of Yahweh’s plan. Many pieces serve to mean additional things when pieced together with events. The jigsaw. That’s exactly how Yahweh designed Her Word – the Biblical Writings She inspired and directed Her faithful servants to write as Her proxy since She dictated its content and made certain only the correct writings made it into the Bible.
However, as time moved away from the day of Pentecost, none of the later translators or their translations were directly under Father’s spirit during the process of translating. Looking from a historical point of view, the work of translation of the Word dates back to the 3rd Century B.C.E. when work on the Septuagint Version was begun in which the inspired Word of the Holy Scriptures in Hebrew and Aramaic. The 39 Books as they are now known, were rendered into the common “kot.ne’ “Greek, which was the international language at that time. Yahweh permitted reasoning power of the Scholars that translated to give Satan an opportunity to try and subvert the Truth of the Word; but because of the Word being Authored in the form of a jigsaw puzzle, Satan was unable to alter Father’s overall Truth of the Word.
The translators of the 27 Books of the Word that make up the Christian Greek Scriptures, which Books completed the Word’s Canon, often quoted from the Hebrew Scriptures; they sometimes used the Greek Septuagint translation rather than to personally translate from the Hebrew text of the Word. Depending on which Word translation Scriptures are taken for comparison, paraphrasing and literal translations may be noted in these verses: Psalms 40:6 with Hebrews 10:5; Some translators made their own free translations in comparing Hosea 2:23 with Romans 9:25. An example of where they paraphrased in some translated versions rather than making a literal translation may be noted by comparing Deuteronomy 30:11-14 and Romans 10:6-8.
Those translators of the Word often translated the names of persons, titles, places and expressions for the benefit of their readers; they defined and gave the meaning of such names as Bar-Jesus, Cephas, Melchizedek, Barnabas and Tabitha; please read John 1:42; Acts 4:36; Acts 9:36 Acts 13:6-8. They expressed the meaning of places such as Golgotha, Siloam and Salem; please read Mark 15:22; John 9:7; Hebrews 7:2; they also made translations of the terms “Tal’i-tha cu’mi” and “E’li, E’li, la’ma sa’bach-tha’ni.” Please read Mark 5:41 and Mark 15:34.
The Greek word “her-me-neu’o” means “to explain, interpret.” Please read John 1:42; John 9:7 and Hebrews 7:2; it is similar to the name of the Greek God “Hermes” – Mercury, regarded by ancient mythologists, not only as the messenger, envoy and interpreter for the gods, but also the patron of writers, speakers, and translators; the pagans in Lystra called Paul “Hermes” since he was the one taking the lead in speaking; please read Acts 14:12. The English word “hermeneutics” pertains to interpretation or exegesis (exegesis >noun (pl. exegeses) critical explanation or interpretation of a text, especially of scripture.
-DERIVATIVES exegetic >adjective exegetical >adjective. -ORIGIN Greek, from ex geisthai ‘interpret’.) The prefix “me-ta’ ” implies “a change,” and so, added to her-me-neu’o, the word me’ther-meneu’o results, it being a word that occurs several times in the Word; it means to change or translate from one language to another, and is always in the passive voice as “when translated.” Please read Matthew 1:23.
