Ugh, you are wrong. Only the very educated upper class had latin for many many years. And powerfull interests kept it that way as a means of controlling information and keeping it limited to an elite few.

I should not have to teach you every day...its not my job....but

Luther did not translate from the Latin Vulgate translation, which is the Latin translation officially used by the Roman Catholic Church.....so its obvious that he wasn't trying to
tell the common folk of Germany that what they were told by the Church was any different from what the Latin Bible said....

The Luther Bible was a German language Bible translation from Hebrew and ancient Greek by Martin Luther, of which the New Testament was published in 1522 and the complete Bible, containing the Old and New Testaments and Apocrypha, in 1534...in his own translation were words that didn't exist in the original texts so he used what HE interpreted was meant....
so in reality, you read what HE thought and not what the real document said...........so you, yourself could decide the meaning....

Anyway....anyone that wanted to do a translation into whatever language was free to do so.....obviously, in ROME and the VATICAN, Latin was their language
they didn't speak German ...

Either you're just as stupid or just as bigoted as Jarod is. (or you can't accept me being right)
