Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days you shall labor and do all your work, but the seventh day is the Sabbath of the LORD your God.

Looks like another marketing gimmick.

As for translation ... Psalm 1:1 alone is enough to cause problems.

I think the concept might be helpful, but using the TNIV means I'd never use it. Perhaps they should consider doing the Books of the Bible with other translations.
