Subject: Is NASB better than other translations? |
Bible Note: Good note on the translations Hank. I have been looking for a translation of Hebrews that is consistent and accurate with translating the verb tense. Most change some verbs from past to present and other verbs from present to past and then from future to present. Since I do not know Greek, I am at a severe disability when reading that book. Strong doesn't help too much either because it doesn't help with the verb tense. The best I can do is laboriously search out what commentators have said, and some mention what the verb tense actually says. Do you know of a translation that is always right? The ESV was the best I found so far, but I don’t have a copy of the NASB, so I have only checked a couple. MJH Ps- when you post, if you could use paragraphs it would help reading your post a lot. |
