Lama Sabachthani Emeka Anonyuo

In this second edition of Lama Sabachthani, the author emphasized the perils intrinsic in faulty translation or transliteration of the Original language of the Holy Bible; phenomenon that inevitably leads to erroneous interpretation precipitating colossal implications. He showed this monumental hazard by analyzing what is claimed to be the Words of Jesus Christ on the Cross. What did He say; "lama Sabachthani" meaning "Why have You Sacrificed Me" or "Lama Azavthani" interpreted as "Why have You forsaken Me?Did anyone hear exactly what He said? The author also cast a casual spotlight on the so-called Temptation of Jesus Christ", and posed the following questions; (1), Was there really a "Temptation? And (2), Is the said "Temptation not, a Parable? The full floodlight is on the catastrophic consequences of inaccurate translations that birth grave misinterpretations and decontextualization of intended objectives of the Messiah; as in "Why have You forsaken Me". He argues robustly, almost violently that God, did not forsake Christ, nor does He abandon anyone, at all.
