A Comparative Study Restoring the text of long-gone Hellenistic Greek autographs is difficult, and compounded where literal translation is involved. The task is complicated by variant texts which continue to be discovered. Thus, "There is not at the present time any critical text which would command the same degree of general acceptance as the Revisers' text did in its day." [vii] About my Bibles The New English Bible successfully combines readable prose with, what I am assured is, an accurate translation. It is one of very few popular biblical translations to genuinely start from scratch, rather than just rehashing the KJV yet again. The desire to get back to the sources is, of course, an admirable one which places the editors in the tradition of Jerome, Erasmus, and Luther. The NEB was also originally conceived as a spectacular ecumenical project, with pretty much every church body going having a hand in it. With so much going for it, it is a pity that everyone favours the NIV (bad) and the NRSV (boring). ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse

The New English Bible, completed in 1970, was the culmination of more than twenty years' work by scholars and literary advisers representing the major Protestant churches of the British Isles. An authoritative translation made directly from the best Hebrew and Greek texts and founded on all the resources of contemporary scholarship, it aimed to present the full meaning of the original in clear and natural modern English. This approach marked a departure from the prevailing Bible translation philosophy and to this day the NEB has a significant place in the history of the Bible in English. The New English Bible is now reissued in this classic 'Library Edition' format to coincide with the reissue of the complete Cambridge Bible Commentaries series, which was itself based on the NEB text.
