James,

You write: "Karl has given you the linguistic arguments."
Yes, and I am grateful.

Having written regarding Professor Alter: "I have to admit I don't know who
he is either." you then write: "I strongly suspect that Alter has
theological reasons for his interpretation."

I strongly suspect that you have qualitatively insufficient warrant to make
such a claim, nor do I see what possible theological reason(s) might serve as
an agenda underling his translation.

With regards,

Jay
