Not a correction

edit

"One notable change that was beyond just revising language flaws was a correction changing the word "Easter" in Acts 12:4 to the word "Passover"." -- This is surely just a modernisation rather than a correction. According to the Oxford English Dictionary, the word "Easter" had been used to refer to Passover for many hundreds of years. "2. = Passover n. 1. Now only in *Jewish Easter* or with other contextual indication." The first citation is from the Old English people (more than a thousand years ago). 94.255.189.104 (talk) 13:04, 7 October 2022 (UTC)Reply
