Its like you're arguing a green couch isn't a green couch because a dot of bleach got on it and made a white patch. The couch is still a green couch but we are now overly focusing on the blemish of the spot instead of taking in the whole couch.

It's a green couch - with a white spot. I guess your God is a good God - with an evil spot?

See, you're claiming a perfect God, an absolute being. That means no blemishes. So yes, one "spot" on God or on God's word matters a lot. It means God is prone to error.

We weren't discussing the nature of God. tame_deuces is talking about a problem he thinks was made in a translation.

I'm saying the purpose of this post was to look at a historical event that seems to fit into God's Plan. One imperfection that may or may not have been totally explained by history doesn't contradict the historical event or the fact that it may be part of a larger plan.
