The KJV / TR are my gold standard. That being said, I have found — in teaching folks whose first language is not English — that modern versions may help them get some clarity on what is being...

In the main I agree with you about modern translators "making stuff up," although they have developed sophisticated techniques to justify their inventions. But you have chosen a very difficult...

Two friends were playing chess and one said to the other, “Let’s make this interesting,” so they quit playing chess. Learn from them.

Thank you for posting, @Edward. I've watched the full video. Matthew Everhard is right, and two things stand out that make this particularly egregious. 1. The target of the allegedly "unwholesome...

Twice I have travelled to Northern Kenya to teach and serve indigenous peoples from the region and surrounding countries. We promote MERF as "Faithful, Fruitful and Cost-effective Indigenous...

That's a really insightful analysis. Thank you.
