It is used to describe differences in kind, nature, or character. The Bible addresses diversity in several contexts, including spiritual gifts, ethnic groups, and practices.<br><br><b>Diverse Spiritual Gifts</b><br><br>The Apostle Paul speaks of diverse spiritual gifts in his letters to the early churches. In <a href="/1_corinthians/12-4.htm">1 Corinthians 12:4-6</a> , Paul writes, "There are different gifts, but the same Spirit. There are different ministries, but the same Lord. There are different ways of working, but the same God works all things in all people." Here, Paul emphasizes that while there is a diversity of gifts and functions within the body of Christ, they all originate from the same Spirit and serve the same purpose of building up the church.<br><br><b>Diverse Ethnic Groups</b><br><br>The Bible acknowledges the existence of diverse ethnic groups and nations. In the Old Testament, the Israelites are often distinguished from other nations, yet there is a recognition of the diversity of peoples created by God. In the New Testament, the message of the Gospel is extended to all nations, reflecting the inclusivity of God's salvation plan. <a href="/revelation/7-9.htm">Revelation 7:9</a> provides a vision of this diversity in the heavenly realm: "After this I looked and saw a multitude too large to count, from every nation and tribe and people and tongue, standing before the throne and before the Lamb."<br><br><b>Diverse Practices and Laws</b><br><br>The Old Testament law contains references to diverse practices, particularly in the context of prohibitions against mixing different kinds of things. For example, <a href="/leviticus/19-19.htm">Leviticus 19:19</a> states, "You must keep My statutes. You shall not breed your livestock with two different kinds. You shall not sow your field with two kinds of seed. And you shall not wear clothing made of two kinds of material." These laws were given to the Israelites to maintain purity and distinctiveness as God's chosen people.<br><br><b>Diverse Trials and Temptations</b><br><br>The New Testament also speaks of diverse trials and temptations that believers may face. <a href="/james/1-2.htm">James 1:2-3</a> encourages believers to "consider it pure joy, my brothers, when you encounter trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance." The diversity of trials serves a purpose in the spiritual growth and maturity of believers.<br><br><b>Diverse Tongues</b><br><br>The phenomenon of speaking in diverse tongues is addressed in the New Testament, particularly in the context of the early church. <a href="/acts/2-4.htm">Acts 2:4</a> describes the event of Pentecost: "And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues as the Spirit enabled them." This event marked the outpouring of the Holy Spirit and the beginning of the church's mission to reach diverse peoples with the Gospel.<br><br>In summary, the concept of diversity in the Bible is multifaceted, encompassing spiritual gifts, ethnic groups, practices, trials, and languages. Each aspect of diversity is presented within the framework of God's sovereign plan and purpose for His creation and His people.<a name="web" id="web"></a><div class="vheading2">Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary</div>1.

The distinction between "divers" and "diverse" in the King James Version seems to be that the former is the wider term, the latter being restricted to the meaning of "different in kind," while "divers" is also used to express difference of number. the Revised Version (British and American) retains "diverse" in all instances but changes "divers" nearly everywhere, except where it has the meaning "several." Compare <a href="/matthew/24-7.htm">Matthew 24:7</a> <a href="/luke/21-11.htm">Luke 21:11</a> <a href="/hebrews/9-10.htm">Hebrews 9:10</a>, and others. It is hard to understand why the Revised Version (British and American) retains "divers" as a translation of poikilos, in <a href="/matthew/4-24/mark/1-34.htm">Matthew 4:24 Mark 1:34</a>, et al., because poikilos certainly cannot have the meaning "several" but "different in kind," and the idea expressed in these passages is not that some of the people had several diseases but that different people had different kinds of diseases. The same is true in <a href="/hebrews/13-9.htm">Hebrews 13:9</a> where "divers" does not refer to number but to various kinds of teaching. <a href="/hebrews/2-4.htm">Hebrews 2:4</a> and <a href="/james/1-2.htm">James 1:2</a> rightly change the reading of the King James Version "divers" to "manifold."<br><br>In other passages the Revised Version (British and American) changes "divers" to "diverse," and thus renders the idea of the original text "different in kind." Compare <a href="/deuteronomy/25-13.htm">Deuteronomy 25:13</a>; <a href="/proverbs/20-10.htm">Proverbs 20:10, 23</a>. Other passages are changed the better to render the original text: <a href="/deuteronomy/22-9.htm">Deuteronomy 22:9</a>, "two kinds of seed"; <a href="/judges/5-30.htm">Judges 5:30</a>, "dyed"; <a href="/2_chronicles/30-11.htm">2 Chronicles 30:11</a>, "certain men"; <a href="/mark/8-3.htm">Mark 8:3</a> and <a href="/acts/19-9.htm">Acts 19:9</a>, "some." the King James Version reads. in all these passages "divers." the Revised Version (British and American) changes the King James Version <a href="/hebrews/1-1.htm">Hebrews 1:1</a> "at sundry times and in divers manners," an expression often found in Old English, to "by divers portions and in divers manners."<br><br>"Diversities" is found twice as translation of diairesis, literally, "distribution" (<a href="/1_corinthians/12-4.htm">1 Corinthians 12:4</a>), but the Revised Version (British and American) changes the King James Version, <a href="/1_corinthians/12-28.htm">1 Corinthians 12:28</a>, "diversities" to "divers kinds," as translation of gene, "kinds."<br><br>A.
