Perhaps the "aloud" isn't a perfect test. This just isn't a KJV issue. I have noticed that middle school kids do poorly when reading the ESV outloud during youth Bible study. However a switch to the CSB did help. Many of my Highschool kids still read from the ESV during youth Bible study. Which...

Most methods of evaluation I have seen place the KJV at 12th grade. Which I believe. I base this on the fact that I have never heard anyone in the past 20 years, outside of a preacher, read the KJV outloud without stumbling all over the place. Also, according to PIAAC 52% of adults in...

I think it is very possible communicating the correct message. The passage is notoriously difficult. The phrase in the LXX also lacks a verb and really doesn't help the english reader know what exactly is the meaning here. If προς is to be read as "against" in the accustive then the LXX agrees...

The NET agrees with the ESV as well. The NET teams provide this note in regards to their decision. "Heb “and toward your husband [will be] your desire.” The nominal sentence does not have a verb; a future verb must be supplied, because the focus of the oracle is on the future struggle. The...

From the NAC commentary on Gen 3:16 .... better is the explanation suggested by Gen 4:7b, where 'desire' and 'rule' [masal] are found again in tandem: 'It desires to have you, but you must master [masal] it.' In chap. 4 'sin' is like an animal that when stirred up will assault Cain; it...

There isn't enough in the OP to answer that question. I assume you mean how would I prefer to translate αδελφοί (adelphoi). Context would decide that. There is several occasions where "siblings" or "brothers and sisters" is actually the preferred reading. Sometimes it is not. However, I do...

Hmm.... Do you know who the other founder of Bible.org was? Sent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk

It is likely Hampton Keathley of Bible.org. I believe Bible.org was the official sponsor and he is the co-founder. Sent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk

That is probably a good way of seeing it. It is closer to NIV than NLT. Sent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk

There is two versions now. I have been using the 2nd Edition recently. I find it to be a good dynamic translation. Great to read parallel with the NASB ot ESV. Sent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk

The only two listed I would recommend against using as their primary translation for reading is the KJV and NLT. The KJV is so old the language is a barrier to understanding. I have people in my church who have used the KJV their whole life. When you call on them to read during Bible study...

Crossway makes a great high end Bible. I have the Omega thinline. I love it. Mine is brown as well. The link is for black Crossway ESV Omega Thinline Reference Bible, 80th Anniversary Edition, Black Goatskin - evangelicalbible.com Sent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk

That is a good thing. Sent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk

I use both. I have never heard the CSB was "bent" toward calvinism. The co-chair of the translation committee is David Allen....who is far from a Calvinist. It is just a good and faithful translations. The ESV does get accused of being the Calvinist Bible (Elect Standard Version). The reason...

That seems to be common practice by some. Sent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk

I have found the digital very user friendly. I have it on Olive Tree and it is hyperlink enabled. Which allows me to jump pretty much where ever I want to go. Sent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk

Julie is constantly going after Macdonald. I don't know him and I am not defending him. But she has even accused of him making plots to murder multiple people. Sent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk

She preaches to mixed congregation and attacks white males in the church because...well, they are white and male. She attempted to promote women pastors in the SBC, then Mohler went after her and she deleted tweet. Sent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk
