Got confused for a minute there because I look up most passages in CJB.
Looks like VOICE is one of the very few other English translations that doesn't use a variation of "for we are many".

BTW, looks like the drect translation to English[1] is "there are so many of us".

[1] The CJB is translated directly from Hebrew and Ancient Greek to Modern English primarily for Messianic Jews.

Welu:
Aw, Elliot.

Nice to see a longer newspost. Glad Jeph is doing well. I'm really excited for Cubetown. Elon Musk sucks eggs.

The NAB I grew up with, for us plastic pads, does the same, but it still says "I am legion," so... kind of implied.

John Allenson:
While I love the two of them together, Elliot has so much insecurity in relationships.
I'm unsure that Clinton has the basic social skills to reassure him.

Elliot's insecurity is painful to witness. I wonder if we will get more of a backstory about him to get a better idea of underlying reasons (if any).

Although, TBH, as a big (very tall) and insecure guy myself, it may simply just be him always having been a huge guy. Many people don't understand it, but many tall guys are very insecure.
