No that's not exactly what I'm saying - do you have a big problem
with the KJV? It's been at the top of the pile for more than 400yrs and
I don't know of a new one that can hold a candle to it for the beauty
of it's prose and its understandability. jt
NASV -- hands down. New English Translation is good. It has over 60,000 general and technical notes. The folks have a web site. Their goal is to get the Bible into as many hands as possible. New Living Bible is also very good.
As far as critiquing the actual mss --- you and Kevin are the first on that one and I have been around a long time. Got to go polish my walker. The bible is as we know it, is the result of a comparative study of various and ancient sources, as you well know. If God gave it to us, it was through the "providential" route. KJV is fine, I might add. But there are others that certainly just as good if not better. Right?
