Perhaps well said. Material message misinterpretation seems possible even within the same language set, not to mention between language sets.

However, my experience seems to be that, after reading the Bible in its entirety, thinking through its various presentations (including some in different versions), and comparing my perspectives with others' via respectful, analytic discussion; a primary message seems to emerge: the key to optimal human experience is acceptance of God as primary relationship and sovereign authority. The extent to which science's findings seem to substantiate that message seems to warrant the suggestion that I correctly perceive the message despite my seeming to have read a foreign language translation.
