(Daniel 11:37-38 - King James Version). The correct translation cannot be “gods” in the plural because in Daniel 11:38 the Hebrew text has “in his estate”. The subject to whom “in his estate” is referring to is necessarily “… of his fathers” in the verse 37. The question was if the correct translation must necessarily be "God" or there might be "god". | |
