381 | Why the NKJV over the NASB ? | Bible general Archive 3 | kalos | 190123 | ||
Huron, Thanks for your good post. You write: 'there is a concern about the newer translations being a "change" from the KJV. Secondly, I think that the NKJV is advertised more than the NASB.' Agreed. And thirdly, not only is the NKJV advertised more, it appears that it is relatively easy to get permission to use the NKJV as the text of various study and niche (specialized market) Bibles. Such, it seems, has not been the case with the NASB, which is the text of far fewer such Bibles. Also, speaking only for myself, the NASB is not at all wooden or clumsy to one who has been reading the KJV for more than 50 years. :-) Grace to you, Kalos |

Mark, Good post. I agree that following the Greek word order is more of a plus than a minus for the NASB. "What good is readability if a translation does not accurately render what the Bible actually says?" --Leland Ryker, author of "The Word of God in English: Criteria for Excellence in Bible Translation" Grace to you, Kalos |

Justme, As you say, in the past we didn't even know the KJV was written at the 11th-grade level. But don't worry! Thanks to the public school system in the U.S. the reading levels, like our money, are being inflated. Just as it now takes ten dollars to buy the same item that cost one dollar years ago, eventually it will take a college graduate to read what an 11th grader was able to read in 1960. Grace to you, Kalos |

385 | Polygamy, Prostitution, etc. Bad things? | Bible general Archive 3 | kalos | 190770 | ||
You shall not commit adultery. Exodus 20:14 AMPLIFIED [Prov. 6:25, 26; Matt. 5:28; Rom. 1:24; Eph. 5:3.] The bad things God does not want us to do are made plain and clear in the 613 commands of the Law of Moses. "Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law." (1 John 3:4) Grace to you, Kalos |

The most accurate translation of the Bible in the English language is the NEW AMERICAN STANDARD BIBLE (NASB). Of course, there will be some who disagree; let them. :-) You may read more about the NASB by going to: http://www.gospelcom.net/lockman/nasb/ You may find the following website to be of interest.

Anyone who believes the KJV is the most accurate English translation of the Bible might want to go to: http://netbible.com/docs/soapbox/versions.htm There you will find an essay with the title "Why So Many Versions?" by Daniel B. Wallace, Ph.D. An excerpt from the essay: '"Breaking up is hard to do," as the song goes. Ma Bell did it--creating a glut of long distance companies almost as numerous as brands of deodorant. 'The Bible did it, too. Before the year 1881 you could read any version you wanted--as long as it was the King James Version. But since 1881, scores of new translations have been printed. 'How did the King James get dethroned? Which translation is best today? Are any of the modern translations really faithful to the original? These are some of the questions we'll be looking at in this essay. But initially, we'd just like to get a bird’s eye view. We simply want an answer to the question, "Why are there so many versions of the Bible?"' |

395 | The KJV is the most accurate? | Bible general Archive 2 | kalos | 104380 | ||
The KJV is the most accurate? Consider this: there are over 300 words in the King James that no longer mean what they meant in 1611. |

Makarios: Thank you for your reply. No doubt the folks at av1611.com would find fault, even though what I posted is pure fact with no opinion added. It's just a fact that there are over 300 words in the King James that no longer mean what they meant in 1611. --kalos |

If there is no such thing as the most accurate translation, then it would follow that all translations are equally accurate -- from The Message to the KJV. Also, I think we can safely say that there is a real way to judge which translations are more literal and which are less. This statement itslef -- "The claim to which is most accurate is nothing more than opinion and sales hype" -- is an opinion (in my opinion). :-) I agree with you 100 percent regarding staying with the major translations which you named. Bless you, Ed. Ever your friend, kalos |

justme: Having read your posts from the beginning, I have no doubt that using the edition of the KJV to which you refer, you could preach a fine message. You hit the nail on the head when you say: there just is no excuse for not reading the Bible. I couldn't agree with you more. Dr. Wallace writes: 'In summary, I would suggest that each English-speaking Christian own at least a NASB or RSV and an NIV. As well, I think it would be helpful to possess a King James and even a New English Bible. And then, MAKE SURE THAT YOU READ THE BOOK!' (http://netbible.com/docs/soapbox/versions.htm) ) (Emphasis added.) --kalos |

justme: I agree with the gist of your Note, with one exception. I would have to say that nothing could be more INaccurate than to translate the Bible word for word MYself. :-) --kalos |
