5.0 out of 5 stars Great translation, February 21, 1999
By A Customer
This is my favorite translation. It is put into good Contemporary English, without dumbing it down. The language is inclusive without being "politically correct". For instance, in many cases, Greek used male nouns like "brother" in a generic sense, that is, sibling. This Bible translates those situations accordingly, as "brother or sister", but it doesn't use any unnecessary terms like "Our father-mother in heaven" (I've actually seen translations like that!). The translation itself is based on new findings of older documents. For serious Bible Study, this, or even better, this translation with footnotes, is one of the better Bibles, but for beauty, King James is still best, IMO. Especially in the Psalms.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good translation of a timeless book, January 5, 1999
This is an excellent version of a timeless book with much to teach both young and old. It has inspired generations toward greatness. I highly recommend buying a version of the bible that you can easily read. This fits that bill for many.

This is a very bland version of the greatest book ever written, constantly evaluating the authors' intentions, judging them against 1990s American political correctness, and... Read more
