✦ Synopsis

In my opinion, the material in this book makes for very good reading. Professor BeDuhn's findings and conclusions reached are stated in an very understandable manner. You may not agree with his choice of what Bible version renders the best translation of the New Testatment. However, I do believe readers will at the very lease respect his research and the strength of his convictions displayed in making his choice. I would recommend this book to anyone who desires an informed insight with respect to which version of the Bible conforms most closely to the orginal Greek (Koine) manuscripts of The New Testatment.
