Subject: What do you think of new Holman Bible? |
Bible Note: For the record, may I ask which translation(s) of the Bible do you use? Please note: originally the King James Version could be published only by those who were licensed to do so by the King of England. Therefore, at one time, the KJV was copyrighted and its publication controlled. Sir, I respect your decision to use (a) certain translation(s) and not to use others. I definitely have my preferences and my own criteria for an English translation of the Bible. . . . However even the King James Version translators themselves wrote: "...variety of translations is profitable for the finding out of the sense of the Scriptures" and "We affirm and avow that the very meanest translation of the Bible in English, set forth by men of our profession ... contains the Word of God, nay is the Word of God." |
