"asswaged"?

Yes. Asswaged is the proper Biblical spelling of the modern assuaged, as it is in the original authorized English translation of the Holy Scriptures. Many modern "King James" Bibles actually alter the text, which can lead to confusion and errant exegesis (see "King James Glossary" & "Believers Beware of Counterfeit King James Bibles" for other spelling alterations).
Um, how can changing the spelling in a translation result in exegetic problems? JoshuaZ 14:57, 7 March 2007 (EST)
King James-onlyism is not an official position of Conservapedia last I checked. MountainDew 15:01, 7 March 2007 (EST)
Oh my, was that the logic behind the user's comment. *checks link*. Yep, wow. I don't know what to say to that. JoshuaZ 15:08, 7 March 2007 (EST)
In fact, looking at that website in detail it argues for among other things the old-style British spelling of "Savior" as "Saviour" so per Conservapedias rules about British and American English if anything Conservapedia is anti-KJV onlyism. JoshuaZ 15:13, 7 March 2007 (EST)
By that reasoning, any edition claiming to be the King James Version that omits the Apocrypha is counterfeit. What do they have to say about the Apocrypha? Is it OK to omit them? Dpbsmith 16:13, 7 March 2007 (EST)
(Sigh) Why do I even ask? Yes, they have a pat answer. Dpbsmith 16:13, 7 March 2007 (EST)
Well at least they are aware that the apocrpha was in the original KJV. Many KJVist don't even know that. I can spot at least 4 factual errors in that piece though (ignoring things that aren't factual errors per se but just very odd language choice like the "Jewish Church"). What fun.

Dates

Excuse me but where the heck are the Roman calendar dates coming from? There is no way that that was the calendrical system in use. Most likely the system refferred to is a lunar calendar or lunar-solar calendar like that that Jews currently use. JoshuaZ 14:59, 7 March 2007 (EST)
