Subject: Have you looked at the published TNIV/ |
Bible Note: Hank " ..... Hmmm, I do wonder though how many copies of the TNIV EdB owns... " Since you asked I will tell you "NONE". In fact I am making a concerted effort to rid my library of all Zondervan published material. I feel very betrayed by the company and I think everyone should consider what they did before they support them through purchase. However we also have to be careful not to cut off our nose to spite our face. Zondervan does publish some excellent material. That said,lately I have found that other publishers are stepping up and coming out with equal or superior material. One of the mysteries of life to me is why 'God's Word' hasn't found a greater following than it has. The principals of the translation for God's Word is based on the standards that Wycliff Translators use to translate in other languages. In effect when you read God's Word your reading a translation that is as close as possible to every other language translation Wycliff has done. I would think that would help establish a commonality that everyone claims is missing by not having only one translation. EdB |
