'Bible (TCNT) NT 01-27: The New Testament' Summary
The Twentieth Century New Testament is a translation of the New Testament into modern English, completed in 1904. It was a collaborative effort by a group of individuals from diverse backgrounds, including ministers, housewives, teachers, and businessmen, who sought to make the New Testament accessible to a wider audience. The translation aimed to capture the essence of the original Greek text while using language that was understandable to the general reader. The project was advised by scholars such as J. Rendel Harris and Richard Weymouth, ensuring a degree of accuracy in the translation. Notably, the translators rearranged the New Testament books in the order scholars believed they were written, placing Mark before Matthew, for instance. Each book is preceded by a brief introduction providing context and insights. The Twentieth Century New Testament offers a distinct and engaging reading experience, making it valuable for both in-depth study and personal reflection.Book Details
