Thanks for the welcome. I, personally, do read the NIV, now. It helps me understand in today's language, without getting lost in the language structure of the early 17th century. However, I do miss the KJV(AV) and all of the "shall not's, Thou's, wherefore's", etc. I read and compare between the NIV, KJV(AV), and the paraphrased NASB. I'm looking forward to getting another version (a real book, not off of the web) and reading it thru. Reading a different version each year might be a really good ambition for some people. Hmmm, I think I'll bring that up in my Sunday School Class this comming week. We're going to try and get a group together to read it in a year, and a different translation might add some extra insite not already gained. I might add, that unless you understand the original language that the particular book was written in, they're all translations. Each and every one of them! I don't understand Greek, or Hebrew, or any language other than English. I do feel however that God's hand has guided the pens (minds) of the translators, all of them. Each version does it's own good and will reach a group of people to be saved. Amen. Russ |

I missed up... For Paraphrased I meant the New Living Letters, for conventional I meant the NASB. I mistyped and mis-proofread. I knew what I wanted to say, It just didn't come out that way. I humbly appologize. My God bless. Russ |
