EdB: You make some very good points, in my opinion:-) The one area I would add is to read what the translator teams goal was. The Niv clearly says from what point they are starting from, as doesthe NASB and others. The more neo-orthodox the translators the more liberal the version will be. How the translators put in their opinion as to Old Testament dates again have a real meaning as well. In my opinion:-) I would have put the NIV "in" your list and taken "out" the New Living Bible. Perhaps what many do not like is Dynamic Equalivement versions, like the NIV and in some verses every version eever translated. New Tribes Missions and Wycliffe Translators all use D. E. to put orignal Biblical languages into native tongues. I personally like less of the D. E. than as close to literal as possible. Which I an sure several translations do very good in translating. However, nothing is more accurate than to translate word for word your self. This takes years and years, which some of us may not ave left, so I choose to read the NASB instead. Hope this added something more to the mix. Blessings. justme |

Justme Absolutely but we can't say the NASB is more accurate than say the NKJV and be totally correct. Since it is not possible to do an exact word for word translation, we can't say this literal translation is more accurate than this translation. We can say it is very literal and we prefer it over another, but to claim it more accurate is nothing more than opinion or a sales pitch. The reason I included the NLT is your right they are a more D. E. translation but in some cases the words or the phrase they used better translate the actual meaning than another. I use the NLT almost as a commentary, if I have a passage that is hard to comprehend I will read it in the NLT. Many times the NLT paints a very accurate picture of the idea the writer was trying to express. The reason I did not include the NIV higher is I have a distaste for Zondervan and their betrayal of the Christian community by publishing and promoting their attempt at polictical correctness in their gender neutral TNIV. To me any Christian that loves Jesus should totally boycott Zondervan. I know I have. EdB |

i've the greatest problem with my fellow christians at a church here. they believe the kjv purified 7 times .the translation was the seventh time(kjV) seems to be one reason they stand on it .Brothers the nlt has been a great source for me and my wife to understand.back in the 60's or 70's to me the good news was great. what is clear to understand.sure the kjv is one to stand by also when in conflict of other ones to help keep it all in line . now we have to have some standard cause when the world anti christ church comes they will also have a translation they have prepared and planted very well to decieve.God won"t give you a snake when you ask for bread.some of the best people i know like a translation differance among them .this can also be used by satan to destroy and cause diverseity among breathern.if we spent as much time loving God and our neighbor as to disputeing the translations.world might be in a little better shape perhaps for certian we could spend more with the harvest. | ||||||

You write: "we have to have some standard cause when the world anti christ church comes they will also have a translation they have prepared and planted very well to decieve" May I ask, where in the Bible does it say that the world anti christ church will also have a translation they have prepared? Also, what world antichirst church? Scripture references, please. |
