‘LAMED. For ever, O LORD, thy word is settled in heaven.’ Psalm 119:89

Considering the magnitude of this project with its potential effects and ramifications, one has to wonder what the holdup is all about, and why the Church hasn’t lauded the praise of the prophetic skills, and translating abilities of their beloved prophet.
