According to the NRSS Bible (New Revised Slovakian Standard), the word is a form of zmrzlina, or ice cream. Now I’ve never been one to trust a word that begins with 5 consonants, but this is true. Over the centuries, the strong Goth/Greek influence has phonetically morphed the “sp” into “zmrz”, the “lang” into “lina”, and as we all know that “knid”+” zomai” are silent when placed together. <BR/>So…what this verse REALY means is that Jesus is moved to the “coldness” of his bowels. This, of course, is a much stronger adjective expression – active rather than passive. <BR/>Regardless of the interpretation, it represents a strong motivation for Jesus’ feeling and caring for us sinners.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10217302.post-6650760563640640892009-02-12T10:13:00.000-06:002009-02-12T10:13:00.000-06:00Steve and I lived in Tarpon Springs Florida the fi...Steve and I lived in Tarpon Springs Florida the first few years of our marriage. It is a Greek fishing community, and has managed to maintain the sanctity of their culture very well, including language. English was definately a second language when we lived there. I wish that I would have paid closer attention to the conversations, instead of just wondering what they were saying!! <BR/><BR/>Today, Andy, you sent me down a very peaceful memory lane - Thanks!!
