Subject: What is the most accurate version? |
Bible Note: Kalos I don't certainly don't want to shake anyone's confidence in the excellent Bible translations we have available to us. NASB is an excellent translation and I prefer it. However the fact remains that translation is a not an exact science where compromises and interpretations come into play. While I think Lockman and their translation team did an excellent job and in many cases I prefer their decisions over the ones made by other translators, to say their translation is authoritatively the ‘most accurate’ is simple not possible. I would recommend the NASB to anyone that wanted to a very literal translation but I would also ask them to consider the KJV, NKJV and the ESV also. I feel any of these four in particular do an especially excellent job at presenting the true word of God in accurate and faithful manner. That is all I’m saying. EdB |
