From God to reader, the first issue regarding the inspiration and interpretation of scripture is the location of inspiration. You might illustrate this process in this way
God-->human author-->original-->copies-->
-->translation-->reader or authoritative reader.
There are six prevalent view:
1. That inspiration occured between God and the human author.
2. That inspiration occured in the originals
3. That inspiration occured in the translation
4. That inspiration occured between the translated version and the reader.
5. That inspiration occured within the reader
6. That inspiration occured within the authoritative reader.
It is my belief that inspiration occured in the originals. I do believe in Divine preservation of scripture and in the Holy Spirit's work of illumination. What do you think and why?
