5.0 out of 5 stars This is the Best English Translation of the Bible, February 28, 2004
By Mark Wilkins "wilkinsm18" (Tampa, Florida United States) - See all my reviews
This particular translation was painstakingly created beteen 1853, and 1903. This is an actual translation by the dedicated, and it gives you exactly what is in the Bible. There are also some very good footnotes, and forwards, for the places that are hard to translate. Once you try this Bible you will not want any other. Read the Book of Jonah and you will see that his being swallowed by a whale is a mistranslation, you will have to read it to see what really happened.

5.0 out of 5 stars An Eye-opener, April 9, 2007
By Jackie (L.A.) - See all my reviews
"By Periods God created that which produced the Solar Sysems;" Genesis 1:1
Wow! This is a wonderful new, modern sense of the Bible. Ferrar Fenton's translation is better than I had hoped it would be. The book arrived in great time and it is beautifully bound.

5.0 out of 5 stars ONE OF THE BEST TRANSLATIONS AVAILABLE, March 15, 2009
By Madame T. DeFarge (Sitting beside Mme. Guillotine, knitting) - See all my reviews
Unfortunately, the Ferrar Fenton translation is not easy to find but it is one of the very best translations available. This one is a good price. Get it in whatever form you can. It is based on the Septuagint, NOT the Masoretic text, which also makes it far, far superior.

The binding was unglued when I received it and the print on alot of the pages was faded...from 1 to 5 on fading I would say some pages were at a 3 as far as darkness of font. Read more
