1 | Why the NKJV over the NASB ? | Bible general Archive 3 | mark d seyler | 189798 | ||
Good morning, Hank, I'd just like to add to your words my appreciation for the NASB's adherence to the Greek word order, doubtless a contributor to the criticisms against it. Since Greek used word order to show emphasis, I greatly appreciate that this translation maintains the word order, even at the expense of the "smooth reading" of the English translation. But in this way I can know all the better what God has written, and what higher calling can there be for a translation than that? Love in Christ, Mark |

2 | Why the NKJV over the NASB ? | Bible general Archive 3 | kalos | 190124 | ||
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 |
