Correct Translation of the Greek: Jn 14: 2, Jn 14: 23 In My Father’s House are many dwelling places, not mansions. We will dwell/remain together complying with each other at home.
Jesus is not delivering a lecture about heaven’s architecture or floor plan.

That looks like AI slop (AI generated content) that conveys zero real information. It’s meant to get engagements not to educate.

I’m looking for your argument that will convince me and others that Paul was talking about today’s meaning of what a mansion is.
The video has 198,000 views. There are 1,376 comments. There are 6,100 thumbs up.
I would like to accept your comment as constructive criticism but you are in error.
Steefen:
@Robert,
Provide your etymology of mansions.
Since you want represent the video as incorrect. Let’s hear what you have to say.
** you do not have permission to see this link **
In my Father’s house there are many dwelling places.
** you do not have permission to see this link **
There are many dwelling places in my Father’s house.
= = = = = =
** you do not have permission to see this link **
In my Father’s house are many mansions:
There are mansions inside a house?
I can see there are many “mansions” on an estate.
If you have a problem with the video, watch the video.
There is a reason why some Bible scholars improve the translation to the conclusion presented in the video.
Your questioning is better left to the Bible scholars who agree with the video which explains everything.
Your disparaging comments added no value to this particular discussion.
I thought you may have already covered this verse in your years of study.
Robert
a welcoming one to Dan, letting him know that his assessment of your video was a common one to those of your videos many of us have bothered to watch.

His assessment not of my video, the video was posted by The Original Meaning.
His assessment was incorrect. It was educational. The video was coupled by a beautiful performance of the hymn “Abide with me” which has 9.3 MILLION views and 67,000 likes.
I liked the way the educational video placed the verse within its context.
After 20+ years of studying the Bible. The original post was meaningful to me. The verse did not factor into my book, Historical Accuracy and will not factor into the second edition or version of my book.
I pay attention to the bible scholars of the NET Bible which confirmed dwelling places in my Father’s house. The NRSV also uses dwelling places.
The post, agreeing withh NET and NRSV, is a nice post. The negativity is a reflection on those who brought negativity to this post.
You mentioned Douay-Rheims. I see this:
** you do not have permission to see this link **
In my Father’s house there are many mansions. If not, I would have told you: because I go to prepare a place for you.
The video explained to look at what that word originally meant. It was informative/educational to know what the word originally meant.
It is wrong to assume this video is slop with no educational value and you egged him on. The content creator, YouTube Channel, The Original Meaning, thought some people might have a mistaken understanding of a verse. I was curious and rewarded with a nice video.

I vote for disciples concerned about Jesus leaving them and Jesus telling them there is room in his Father’s heaven for Jesus’ followers to dwell with Jesus and the Father.
You tarnished this post by bringing up side issues, non-issues.
You are the person who said use NASA as evidence and when NASA supported UFO of God by Chris Bledsoe, using your authority to show I’ve been right all along, you are STILL being a sore loser.
There is nothing controversial about the original post. I felt proud of that.
But because you cannot stay on track and accept you lost the NASA argument, you take a simple video about a simple word, and a simple presentation about a word you can agree with and STILL make an off-topic issue.
You have to help yourself with an issue of your own creation.
I did not claim that other beings affect theology and religion. That’s a given by so many people.. I looked into it and wrestled with the topic. You and Stephen want to ignore facts and evidence and pilots and government and the military and intelligence industries.

In a time of prosperity gospels, I’m glad to come across a video that puts an end to people think Christianity leads to a mansion in heaven. You didn’t make the video first. Bart Ehrman, if he made a video or a post about this, I happened to find this video before he made it abundantly clear.

I did not write Ancient Sumer Literature. I am not the reason Lloyd Pye and others found the Chromosome 2 issue was not caused by Evolution but it matches the claim in at least two tablets from Ancient Sumer that the Homo genus was modified to produce Homo sapiens sapiens. You and Stephen have no rebuttal to that. Do you think you two are smarter than Gregg Braden and between the two of you, you and Stephen can convince anyone Chromosome 2 fits evolutionary processes? You are blaming me, the INCORRECT person to blame.

You’re probably blaming me for the existence of Mauro Biglino and Paul Wallis. You don’t like Ammon Hillman but Hillman is closer to God/Theos appears in the Septuagint which is in the Biglino/Wallis book.
You want to blame me for that? I do not see how in the world the Hebrews did not have a word for Theos when they knew the Ancient Egyptians had gods. The Hebrews knew about Baal. Hillman said Greek was a more sophisticated language than Ancient Hebrew therefore look to the Hebrew Bible coming from Ancient Greek. Well, the Hebrews had no word for God until Theos was used in the Septuagint?
One would think you would get off your Personal Vendetta Horse and help me out but you’re only good for moving my Genesis posts outside of the Genesis forum to get down issues that make a difference.
How can you have henotheism and have no Hebrew synonym (before the Septuagint) for the Greek Theos?
Stephen has yet to admit flood stories from Ancient Sumer have archaeological backing but he wants to disparage me because he read some book about P and Non-P sources of the Noah story which does not prove the Ancient Sumerian accounts to the contrary but I get blamed.
Don’t think people can’t see this.
