STRAIT VS. STRAIGHT. WORD CHANGES.

The 1611 Fellowship discusses word and spelling changes in modern Bibles that affect meaning and doctrine. Does "strait gate" mean the same as "straight gate?" Hillis, a navy man, explains the difference navigationally. For examples read my study notes below.

I want to take few minutes to go over a few things from the lesson two weeks ago, and also from the lesson last week. There are some things that I think need further clarification.

(Thank-you Roy from my Patreon channel.)I have been impelled me to do a word study comparing "strait" and "straight" as used in the 1611 AKJB. It appears that every time "strait" is used, it refers to a dire, critical or distressed situation. While "straight" is used to mean not crooked, rather direct. For example Matt 3:3 uses the word "straight" to clearly mean not crooked. While Matt 7:13, "strait gate," is meant to convey a different meaning, as per Webster's definition. Other examples of "strait" in the 1611 are 1 Chronicles 21:13 and 1 Samuel 13:6 where it is obvious that the word is used to mean "a situation of distress." Thus, I have to conclude that "strait gate" in Matt 7:13 should be taken correctly to mean: distress, need and difficulty. Furthermore, many modern Bibles remove the word "strait," substituting "narrow." I encourage everyone to do a word study of: strait, straitly, straight, and straightway. I'm convinced most of us have been mistaken regarding the correct understanding of "strait gate," as per Matt 7:13.

NOTE: Referencing Great Apostasy Part 2 “strait” in the context of dire straits: stressed, down to the wire, desperate times etc. Contrasting Matt 3:3 “straight” not crooked; 1 Chronicles 21:13 “I am in a great strait:” distressed as per 1 Samuel 13:6. Matt 7:13 “strait gate.” Many modern Bibles remove the word strait, substituting narrow. I encourage everyone to do a word study of: strait, straitly, straight, straightway
