Bible Question:
Hello Tim, Where are you getting all this information? Do you have it in your library, or is it a web site? I would like to have access to information like that. On another subject, this is also one of the things that confuses today, all the different translations and greek text and such. I have currently gone back to the KJV because it is the one I was raised in (but I really don't like reading it) and I get really confused and disheartened trying to study with the others when they say different things. I know interpretation is not an exact science, but somehow, it really bothers me. Any help here? later...wdc |
Bible Answer: Greetings WDC! I forgot your question about translations! ;-) I really don't think there are any BAD translations, if you are speaking of the "name brands." There are some that I prefer over others, but none of them are perfect. I would recommned any of the newer versions like the NIV or NASB. I don't prefer the KJV or the NKJV simply because they are both based on a weaker Greek text. But, even they are usually accurate. A good translation, a good commentary, and Strong's should answer most of your questions. Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
