1.3.3 Reflect

Compare the King James Version with another version in their translations of Romans 16:1–2, focusing on Phoebe.

Are there any differences? In these translations, is Phoebe translated as a deacon, deaconess, or servant (16:1)? Is she a benefactor, succorer, or helper of people such as Paul (16:2)?

If there are differences between the translations, which translation do you prefer and why? Where do you think these differences come from?
