Description
The NEWER TESTAMENT Reader’s Edition is a ground-breaking English translation which affirms the New Testament’s authentic Hebrew heritage. With over 25 years in the making, this bible utilizes a three-step translation approach to provide the reader more than a simple literal translation or paraphrase of the Canonical Greek New Testament. The Newer Testament transports the reader into the culture, language, and Jewish thought of the Second Temple period, the time when Jesus lived, through the use of Hebrew literal functional equivalents. Transliterated Hebrew names and places are utilized throughout. The result is a superior reading of the ancient text.
The Newer Testament Reader’s Edition is intended for personal devotion, comparative translation studies, and academic reference. It is written for general readers, students, and scholars. Footnotes are used throughout to provide insightful commentary and translation methodology.
