Bible Note: EdB, As you may have seen from my posts, I'm going through the same thing with my investigation of bible versions and the manuscripts/texts used for each one. Generally, I believe that the NASB is the best, but there is a place in my heart for the KJV. Like what is happening with the new versions today, I realize that the KJV had its detractors when it was first printed, and that it had some corrections that were made. Nowdays though, I wonder if the latest translations have a "planned obscelesence". I noticed that my circa 1985 NASB is no longer current. Among other things they decided to use the longer versions of Luke 24:50,51. Nowdays, with gender neutral NRSV, I think we might be going a bit far. Huron |
