1 | Do you own a TNIV? | Bible general Archive 1 | BradK | 68802 | ||
Hi justme, In my honest opinion, the TNIV is lacking! I would say I'm underwhelmed by it and that it IS problematic from the Gender-Neutrality standpoint alone. I don't think it improves anything in respect to current translations and certainly lowers the standard in comparison to the KJV, NASB, etc. At best I would give it a C minus ( and I'm being generous):-) The cost is 12.99 paperback, and 16.99 hardcover.

BdK: This AM I called Zondervan. I told them of the poor reviews the TNIV was getting, and that I was questioning why they publisher it? They took my phone number and said someone in the review part of Zondervan would call me to further talk. They did call back, and I was asked to review the TNIV and give a honest opinion, good or bad. What are the TNIV weakness and strong points that I observe. I am totally blown away by their reaction. So thank you for the suggestion. Peace and Mercy to us all. justme |

justme, Thank you for the update. Let me know the results should you receive any further communication. In checking out the availability of this translation, I've noted how few copies are on the shelves in both the local Christian Book stores and even the major secular retailers. I've seen 4 copies maximum at the Christian stores. Maybe that is a telling sign. Speaking the Truth In Love, BradK |

BdK: With so many different study Bibles, and versions, not to mention the kind of covers to choose from, shelf space is limited. Here, finding genuine leather is hard to locate. The Bible publishers are choking thenselves, and it is hard to find knowledgeable sales persons who know the different features. I have all I need and I am glad. justme |
