Behold your God (Thought for February 2022)

January 31, 2022

This is how Isaiah 40:9 ends, if you read it in the ESV, for instance. The NIV translates “Behold” as “Here [is]”, which is fine, but here I think “behold” is a better choice. If you look at v10, you have the same word translated “See” by the NIV. And that is what we are [...]
