5.0 out of 5 stars One of the best translations out there., March 19, 2001

By	NYJ (Atlantic Coast, USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: New American Standard Bible (Paperback)

The NASB is in the forefront of Biblical scholarship, and if you want to own only one copy of the Bible (word for word translation) and you are a non-Catholic Christian, then I would tell you to seriously consider this version (I would point Catholics towards the NRSV or NAB). The NASB does not use inclusive language, it is a very strict interpretation but flows smoothly, and also tends to favor the traditional phrasing.

The NASB has traditionally been awarded the title of "the most literally accurate translation", and while I don't believe this to be 100% accurate, I think it's close on the mark. The NASB does benefit from excellent scholarship, and from major advances in Biblical discovery from the last few decades. Throw in the benefit of the cost of this Bible, which is very inexpensive, and you have an excellent Bible to use for a long time. In addition, the concordance at the back of this bible is frosting on the cake.

5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent, inexpensive way to get your hands on a Bible, April 6, 2000

By	Perry R Rutherford (KC, MO) - See all my reviews

This review is from: New American Standard Bible (Paperback)

Although not terribly far advanced in my Greek studies I have been able to see that the New American Standard is a far better translation than most translations out there. Because of the Lockman Foundation's licensing the NAS is usually a more expensive version, but this is a great deal on one. The print is a good size and there is a concordance in the back which is somewhat larger than most I've seen. There are no cross references in the text, which is not much of a loss in my opinion. What I like best about this Bible is that it lays flat when it's open. That can sometimes be hard to find in hardbacks and is almost impossible to find in paperbacks.

5.0 out of 5 stars The scholars choice, July 16, 2001

By	a bond servant of Christ (Lake Worth, FL United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: New American Standard Bible (Paperback)

I have used several translations (NKJV, NIV, TEV, the "complete jewish bible", and even the Masoretic texts) and this is my personal preferance. The NASB stays true to the original hebrew as much as possible and does not lose the intended message as is sometimes the case with translations like the NIV. It may take some getting used to for those familiar with more loosely translated versions like the TEV but it is none the less my favorite translation. The only downside to the NASB is it does not give the chapter and verse notation of OT quotes found in the NT as do some other translations. All-in-all, it is still the holy word of God. Seek Him with all your heart and you will find Him.
