I posted in May that I changed Bibles<\/a> from my long-standing favorite, the New American Standard<\/a> (NASB), to the New English Translation<\/a> (NET Bible), and I have study Bibles in each of those versions. The NET is what I use for study and teaching, including during our weekend services at OTCC<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Bible translators have always had to navigate the rough waters of 1) accuracy to the God-breathed words of Scripture<\/a> and 2) making those ancient thoughts accessible and understandable to the modern readers. One way they have attempted to walk that fine line is to add notes to the margins of the Bible text, elaborating on the text itself. (Even the King James translators were doing this in the early 1600s). ivermectin 1 dosage for dogs<\/a> <\/p>\n

Over time, marginal notes evolved from just a couple of words to entire paragraphs, complete with cross references, first in the center column of the page, and finally in a larger section at the bottom of each page in the Bible. The Bibles with larger sections of notes are called “Study Bibles”, because they help us move beyond just reading the Bible text to actually studying it. Many study Bibles also include outlines and notes at the beginning of each book of the Bible.<\/p>\n

This morning I came across these YouTube videos for two new study Bibles that are now available. The first is the New Living Translation<\/a> (NLT). From an “ease of reading” and understandability standpoint, the NLT is one of the best out there today. (The NLT leans heavily toward number 2 of the rough waters of translation. para que serve o ivermectina para cachorro<\/a> ) It’s what we use exclusively in our classes at Hope Ministries<\/a>.
