1 | HCSB what's your opinion? | Bible general | justme | 241543 | ||
I really love the NASB version of the Bible. Recently I bought a Holman Christian Standard Bible, which I find it very interesting. Is there anything that is noteworthy about the HCSB to be worthwhile to know? | ||||||
2 | HCSB what's your opinion? | Bible general | EdB | 241544 | ||
Opinion HCSB is another of many translations. Many denominations sought easy to read and easy to understand translations to use in their denominational material. Like Sunday School material and internal magazine articles. However some publishers made changed to these translation to be more marketable ("gender correctness") it put the denominations that were using their material and didn't agree with the changes in a bad position. The Baptist decided to prevent future occurances of this happening they decided to publish their own translatiion which they could insure stayed true to their beliefs. I believe the HCSB used both the Westcott Hort Greek and the Textus Receptus. However when there is a discreptency they do not identify it other than saying some manuscripts say this or omit that. |

EdB: dear brother, have you actually got a chance to read a HCSB? I bought one and we have tried to look for glaring passages that most liberal Bibles use. and so far we have not found such problems. The list of those involved with translating are very conservative people. Dallas Seminary is greatly represented, and a good number of SB Seminaries. So with that the Sunday School Board should be pleased. I was so very displeased with the "New NIV", I could not in good faith ever again give it any approval. My wife and I will endeavor to do our duty and go over the HCSB abs we shall see, Thanks for your return post. merry, blessed Christmas EdB. justme |

4 | HCSB what's your opinion? | Bible general | EdB | 241550 | ||
I have and use the HCSB both hard copy and electronically. My only concern is when a verse is notated as "some manuscripts omit the last part of this passage" or "some manuscripts read thus and such" or "some manuscripts add this or that word" they don't identify the manuscript. It could be a change made by the Textus Receptus or a change by Westcott and Hort. I simply like to know who is making the claim that verse should read different. I still prefer the NASB for personal study, NLT when I want simplicity and clarity of understanding, and NKJV to preach from. Please post your conclusions when you have formed them, I would be interested in hearing what you think. |

5 | HCSB what's your opinion? | Bible general | justme | 241600 | ||
EdB: I am still reading and carefully comparing verses in several ways. I doubt very seriously anything I am aware of today, for being accurate is better in my opinion, than the NASB. The HCSB is less wordy, and in some places gives a clearer meaning. At that's my view now. I will keep you informed , and dear brother, a blessed Christmass. justme |
