So your saying the word sober is from biblical times?
"So your saying the word sober is from biblical times?" Not at all, the King James Version is a translation. https://www.quora.com/What-manuscripts-were-the-King-James-Bible-translated-from is probably a good starting point if you are interested.
I did quote the Standard King James Version but the 1611 King James Version also has the word "sober" "Wherefore gird vp the loynes of your minde, bee sober, and hope to the end, for the grace that is to bee brought vnto you at the reuelation of Iesus Christ:" https://www.kingjamesbibleonline.org/1611_1-Peter-Chapter-1/#13
"Be sober, be vigilant: because your aduersary the deuill, as a roaring Lion walketh about, seeking whom he may deuoure." 1 Peter 5:8 https://www.kingjamesbibleonline.org/1611_1-Peter-Chapter-5/#8
Im not into religious discussions, while I may not be christian I believe in most their morals. 1611 isnt when the bible was supposed to be written. I dont believe the word sober was around then.
But the meaning of the word "sober" is still the same after more than 400 years and I bet the Greek word had the same meaning since wine and alcohol existed before the Bible was even written. "I believe in most their morals." that's a great start, I pray that you become a true Christian.
