Bible Note: Hank: Good observations. The reason KJV/TR-Only folks reject the NKJV is because it is not the KJV. Having diligently compared the text of the NKJV with that of the KJV, they come to the profound conclusion that the NKJV is not word-for-word exactly the same as the KJV. On the other hand, if every new translation were identical to the KJV, what would be the point of new translations? By the way, Hank, in searching the Web for information relevant to various postings, I have come across material I would have quoted were it not for the fact that those websites belonged to KJV-Only people, who condemn those who are not KJV-Only. Just recently I found a website that could not discuss any doctrine or issue without bashing other Greek texts (non-TR) and translations that were not the KJV. Grace to you, Kalos NOTE TO ALL: I've been using the KJV all my life. My problem is not with it, but with the notion that the KJV is the only translation we should use. My problem is with the harsh, mean-spirited, un-Christian rhetoric of those who defend the KJV-Only position. |
