Dear All,

Is it worth mentioning that we have a word in the New Testament (pharisaioi, 
'Pharisees') which refers to the sect of Ancient Judaism that later gave us 
modern Judaism, which some interpret as 'separated ones' (Heb parash, 
'spread')?

in the view of listers, is it legitimate to translate "mum" (at the end of
the verse) as "disfigurement" and hence "beating"?

The way I understand the verse is like this-

"the one who corrects a scoffer gets reviled
        the one who reproves a wicked man gets a beating!"

any suggestions as to why this may be wrong (if indeed it is wrong).

thanks

Jim
