Bible Question:
Has anyone checked the newest 2011 NIV against the TNIV? Zondervan says that is is different fron the TNIV. As some here on the SBF can recall when Hank and several of us previewed the TNIV many felt the TNIV was a huge mistake. As it turned out Zondervan stopped publishing the TNIV. My question is the new NIV really that much different from the TNIV? PLEASE DO NOT ANSWER THIS UNLESS YOU HAVE READ FOR YOURSELF AND KNOW FOR SURE THA DIFFERENCE |
Bible Answer: Hello justme, Interesting question you pose. As I've mentioned before, I have one of the few known copies of the TNIV:-) I bought it for reference several years back. It did not sell well, and, as you noted, was discontinued from being published. I was not a fan of it per se (nor the original NIV) as I prefer more literal translations. The biggest criticism (from scholars) of it was due to it's supposed intent on being "gender-neutral". Though the TNIV translation committee may have denied it, this attempt really came out of feminist ideology (IMO). I have not read the new NIV, though I have it on my Logos4 software. I still much prefer the NASB, the NKJV- and more recently the ESV. That being said, Dr. Dan Wallace of DTS, has given a surprisingly favorable review of the new NIV. He is Professor of NT Studies and a noted textual critic, so his comments are not without merit! It is a 4-part review and may be worth your reading. I found it both informative and quite interesting. You can read the review at this link: http://www.reclaimingthemind.org/blog/category/dan-wallace-contra-mundane/. I hope this is of some help, BradK |
