    2 Timothy 3:17 typo.....throughly?

    No Gumby 713, the 2 Timothy 3:17 verse is not a typo. It's just an old English spelling (back from the 17th Century) of our modern word, 'thoroughly'. Another example of this old spelling is in James 1:2 ('divers'); nothing to do with those diving into the depths of temptations, but our spelling today would be, 'diverse' (many, various).

    interesting...I know about the old English spellings, but I looked at another KJV and saw the word was spelled "thoroughly".

    That's why I was questioning. I've seen other differences of that type (other verses than this one) between various KJV copies from different publishers. I was just curious.

    Thank you for replying so quickly!

    Have a great day, my brother.
