Good point.
But if one really buys into the story, I wonder how one avoids the idea that translation might be a sin or at least a misguided effort to thwart God's will? And doesn't that make the entire effort to evangelize the world through translations of Hebrew/Greek (themselves punishments for humanity's hubris) somewhat suspect? I mean, didn't The Almighty foresee some problems with a book-dependent plan?
