ON BOTCHING THE BIBLE: A newspaper finally notices that it's the Book of "Revelation" not "Revelations." This article, by William Safire's language consultant Jeffrey McQuain, is nicely done and amusing, and - all too unusual for a newspaper article - I couldn't find any errors in it.

UPDATE: The link above is to the New York Times, where the article originates, and requires free registration to access. But you can also read it without registering at ABS-CBN News (Philippines).
