New Testament: Being The English Only Of The Greek And English Testament

New Testament: Being the English Only of the Greek and English Testament

by Abner Kneeland

Abner Kneeland's translation of the New Testament stands out as a controversial and historically significant work. Originally a Christian Universalist evangelist, Kneeland's theological views shifted dramatically, leading him to question traditional Christian doctrines. This translation, completed while he was in the midst of his theological evolution, reflects his evolving beliefs and sparked considerable debate within the religious communities of the time. His bold interpretations and unorthodox views ultimately resulted in him being the last person jailed for blasphemy in the United States, highlighting the contentious nature of his work.
