Bible Translations
For He Himself is our peace, who
made both groups into one and
broke down the barrier of the
dividing wall, by abolishing in His
flesh the enmity, which is the Law
of commandments contained in
ordinances    (NASV)
Christ has made peace  between
Jews and Gentiles, and has united
us by breaking down the walls of the
hatred that separated us.  Christ
gave his own body to destroy the
Law of Moses with all of its rules
and commands.   (CEV)
Uncover mine eyes, and I behold
wonders out of Thy law.  (YLT)  
Youngs Literal Translation
Psalms 119:18
Open my eyes so I can see what you
show me of your miracles-wonders

   Word for Word: We loose readability, but gain in accuracy.
Thought for Thought: We loose accuracy, but gain in readability.

In the NASB the translators indicate any words inserted in to the text that
are of their thoughts by way of Italics and ( in parenthesis ) this indicates
insertion from the translator.

We need to realize that commentaries in Study Bibles are commentaries
of men, not of the Father.

We need to understand the people that translates the Scripture, may
have an agenda.  Many of the translators while translating the Scriptures
ALREADY believed we are NOT under the Law any longer and this is
evident in the way they translate the Scriptures.
