Bible Question: ... |
Bible Answer: I am sure that if it didn't contain the comlete text of each of the four versions, it would say so somewhere in the preface. If you are wanting to understand the Word or verify the validity of translation, the best thing to do is get you a Hebrew, Greek, English Interlinear translation, and compair your parallels to the translations under the original scrolls. Get a regular Bible. KJ, NIV, NASB, Amplified or whatever. Check out how many books and chapters in each book yours has compaired to it. Boy!!! I'd bet that you either have good eye sight, or a good magnifying glass, (for that parallel has to either be mighty big, or have very small print.) I have a parallel KJ and NIV. It's print is only adequate. The best parallel anything I have ever seen will, without a doubt, cost less than what you paid and have numerous more versions. It is eSword. It is to scripture, what Windows is to the computer. AND IT IS FREE FOR THE DOWNLOAD at esword.com. There are some, such as the NASB which cost, but dozens of other translations, along with dictionaries and numerous commentaries, which are absolutely free. I have seen software programs which weren't nearly as good, for hundreds of dollars. It's search engine is awsome. For some reason, I feel I haven't, but I hope I have helped. |
