1 of many...
...Translation is a very complex thing to do, and even in the google-age, with translators tested, and having to have qualification in order to work, every now and again, meanings and context can be skewed during translation....

So now back a few years, before google, before spell checks, before proofreading, and qualifications, and know that someones ability to translate was judged on their ability to 'communicate' in the other langauge...

Now ask the following questions..

'How accurate are any of the translations beyond the original text',
'how many translations of bad translations have been done'
and...
'how many bad translation of bad translations have been done?'
and
'...how many 'different' religions are based on nothing more than a typo'
