Subject: Do you own a TNIV? |
Bible Note: Timothy Paul: Thank you for your response. I am a solid student on the NIV. I have consiereable more confidence in the NIV than the KJV. The KJV has many words which we no longer us or they now have different meanings. Then too, the KJV did not have use of older more reliable manuscripts. I personally consider the Updated NASB far above any translation that attempts as close to a word for word translation as possible; but we know that is not totally possible. However the NIV is equally as good in getting the thought accross. The KJV is at a 13th grade reading level, NASB I think is about 10th grade, and NIV is 8th grade reading level. Most people read at the 6th grade level so what do you think people get the most comprehension out of? The best Bible is the one you will read! justme |
