Qualifications may be necessary, but the proof is in the results. If not qualified, why have unbiased scholars praised this translation? Also, isn't it possible that highly qualified Greek scholars might succumb to bias and waste their talents, even misleading readers? That's what BeDuhn has found and documented. Why is it that Luke 10:21,22 is true? This is the way approved by God. Good motive, a pure heart - wouldn't you agree that this is what will cause God to bless one's efforts. "Sanctify them by means of the truth; your word is truth." Who are those that He sanctifies by revealing truth? Those that are true disciples of Jesus - "no part of the world." (Jo 17:16,17) This is the form of worship that God accepts. (James 1:27; 4:4) This is how you identify true Christians, not by the number of letters behind one's name or the amount of money he's made off religion. |

Greetings Ben! The fact remains though that translation is a learned skill. One must be trained to do it. Since the 'translators' of the NWT will not identify themselves, no one knows whether or not they have this skill or not. Further, no one even knows if they translated anything. As I've said, my impression of the NWT is that it is nothing more than a paraphrase of the KJV, not a translation at all. I believe that the real reason for their silence is that they do not have the qualifications to translate at all. Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
