This being because of all of the different world languages and how some words do not translate the same from language to language. This got me to thinking about my life and instances where this has happened, the first instance was in Grade and High school, due to the different version of the Bible my friends and I had. When the teacher would say a chapter and verse and someone would have to read it, it would be slightly different than others in the class and everyone would laugh when it happened in grade school because at that young age everything seems funny. The second thing I thought about was in one of my favorite shows Friends, and it is a scene where Joey is writing a letter of recommendation to an adoption agency for Chandler and Monica. He isn\u2019t the best with words but was shown how to use a thesaurus to sound smarter by using bigger words. So, he ends up using the thesaurus for every word and the true meaning gets lost in translation just as some stories and parables do in the Bible ad Quran.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=LcM4zWiikKQ\">https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=LcM4zWiikKQ<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Friends clip with Joey<\/p>\n<p>Until next time,<\/p>\n<p>Patrick<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In class we talked about how many different versions there are of both the Quran and the Bible.
