Hi Chris,
Which of the modern translations of the Bible would you recmoment most. I’m currently using the ESV.
Leslie.
Hi Leslie. The ESV is a good translation although it leans toward Calvinist doctrine in some parts and is somewhat stilted in others – but a good translation nevertheless. The Holman Christian Standard Bible is also aa good translation and I use it a fair amount. My favourite is and has been for a long time, the New International Version 1983 edition. Later releases and variants of the NIV are mainly sound but they compromise clarity in several instances by using gender-neutral language. I cannot recommend the later editions, but I do recommend the 1983 edition. A 4th translation that I use from time to time is the New Living Translation because of its readability and ability to make clear what, in some cases, other translations make complex.
