I was reading that supposedly in the middle ages that Jesus was believed to be linked to Unicorns or such.
Unicorn i read is actually a mistranslation for ox or a rhino.
Makes me wonder what other parts of the bible are mistranslated, like there are passages saying that LGBT will not enter the kingdom of heaven, but what if that is a mistranslation.
I think that is possible, like i heard about there being different dialects in certain languages in some some languages something that a speaker of a language will sound like gibberish to a speaker of the same language in another part of the country they live in.
Or sometimes a language when translated to another language will turn into gibberish.
Take for example,Japanese being translated to English.
One time i tried translating a anime resin kit to English and it translated a word to "be careful not to hit your bangs"

Why are there unicorns in the Bible?
Unicorns are mentioned in the Bible not one, nor two, but nine times in total, in some translations. Most biblical scholars point out that this is a mistranslation of the Hebrew word re’em, which means “ox” or “buffalo.”
