Too be honest I really like the literal features of the NASB but I get the willies if I take the NASB to a bible study and some one calls on me to read a long passage out loud (bad memories trust me)...the feeling afterwards makes me want to call up and order "Hooked on Phonics".


"with . . . two ribbon markers!!!"??? No kidding? Does R.L. Allan produce a mainstream denom edition with multiple markers to differentiate Isaiah and Deutero-Isaiah? Or maybe one that includes the Gospel of Thomas just before John?

In all seriousness, you may be winning me over. Your previous posts about the Allan got me salivating a bit.
