You all may have already found this, but I was shocked this morning to actually find a typo in my hardcopy Net Bible! *L* I've never found a typo in a Bible before *L* Anyway, it is in Proverbs 11:1 and my downloaded version also has the error: 11:1 "The Lord abhors dishonest scales, but an accurate weight is his elight."

I don't think Al Gore had yet invented the internet way back then, but "elight" sounds like a great web address!

Hey there chowie ;)

If you go to http://www.bible.org/comments/ you can both post new comments and look up any passages of the NET to see if someone else has caught the same error.

For example HERE is the passage in question and if you notice it has been noted already and will be modified in the print version in the next release....hopefully ;)

It has been fixed in the current online version at http://net.bible.org/bible.php?book=Pro&chapter=11

Hope this helps ;)

Thanks, Jenn! I figured I wasn't the only old proofreader out there *LOL* Not that I caught it the first time I read it either! :oops:

I didn't catch it either. I would make a bad proof - reader because my brain automatically corrects them and moves on hehehehe
