Yep quotation, but translated from Greek or Hebrew or Aramaic or i dunno what, but not from English originally. They are not quoting a translation from a certain book or film or anything. Correct me if i am wrong of course. But i am gonna revert it one more time for now anyway, i am pretty sure i am right in this.

I've just found this: apologies if I was a bit abrupt. (For future reference, if you want to debate a point, it's best to do it on the article's Talk page, in which case other editors with an interest may join in the discussion; or, alternatively, on the other person's Talk page. If you post on your own Talk page, no-one is likely see it for a very long time.) In the present instance, however, the quotation is quite definitely correct: see here. "An hundred" is not good modern English, but it is good archaic English: it used to be common to treat words beginning with "h" as if they began with vowels, and you still occasionally see phrases like "an historic building".

Yep, factually you're right then, i stand corrected. Knew i probably posted my motivation in the wrong place, thought, more chance someone will read it, then no post at all. Away for a while until got the mechanics of this better (don't know if i can get away with much more of this, ... kidding.....a little bit, also not bad idea really may be). Thanks for the explanation.
