There are differences in the translations from Greek to English that can lead to a misunderstanding of a verse.

If the translators did not fully understand the meaning of what is being said, especially from a deeper perspective in understanding, how correct is your understanding? This can also be said for the writer.

When you look at the differences in the those four verses, from the English perspective an adversary is implying that there are outside influences. When in fact, the reference is to the adversary to be oneself. This can be acknowledged by the Hebrew 10:27 scripture.

Adversary in the four verses make reference to ones own self-ego.
