“So many versions”


is the title of the new book not found in your so-called Christian bookstore! Ask your pastor why it’s not there!


We will be going through this book which brings to light so many versions of the Bible? How do these versions stack up to God’s perfect words, the 1769 King James Bible which they never mention in this book! The Blainey text! It is always the 1611 translation! Here is what the author’s Sakae Kubo and Walter Specht say in Chapter 1 titled early modern speech versions:


Pg. 26: In the sixteenth century William Tinsdale risked his life to translate the scriptures and died as a martyr in 1538.What was it that inspired him to undertake such a dangerous and daring work? Tindale said “ Which thing only moved me to translate the New Testament. Because I had perceived by experience how that it is impossible to establish the lay people in any truth, except the scripture were plainly laid before their eyes in their mother tongue, that they might see the processing of the text.”


Later on page 26 they fall for the devil’s lie! “ Unfortunately the very version prefaced by these noble words( KJV 1611) is no longer speaking their language of the common man. To the average man of today the language of the KJV seems strange and foreign. There is therefore danger that the Bible may seem to modern man to be something out of date and irrelevant.This has been recognised now for nearly a century. Hence, toward the end of the nineteenth century and the beginning of the twentieth century a movement arose calling for translations of the Bible in modern English.”


Take note that this book puts Scholarship first ( they don’t believe the words on the page)

They refer to the originals ( there are no originals on the face of the planet!)

They attack the so-called archaic words!! The King James Bible!


As we press forward we will compare the versions that they have listed in this book and see how they stack up in their modern English against God’s perfect words, the 1769 King James Bible!


Jg 16:17 That he told her all his heart, and said unto her, There hath not come a rasor upon mine head; for I have been a Nazarite unto God from my mother's womb: if I be shaven, then my strength will go from me, and I shall become weak, and be like any other man. KJB


17 And he told her all his mind, and said to her, “A razor has never come upon my head; for I have been a Nazirite to God from my mother’s womb. If I be shaved, then my strength will leave me, and I shall become weak, and be like any other man.”RSV


The RSV can’t decide! Pinned or shaven to lose strength? Which is it? Both?
