Christian Standard Bible (CSB)

You grouped the NIV with the NIV in the dynamic category. So going by that invalid theory the NET and CSB would be in the very same category. That's sloppy thinking --making no distinctions.

It's okay. I understand. I'm here for you.

You are S-T-R-A-N-G-E.

You do realize my post had to do with the NIV, NLT, and CSB and emphasizing the necessity of making distinctions among the various translational approaches.

As I said, I understand what you're saying. And I'm proud of you, okay?

This is a non sequitur if ever I heard one. It is in the nature of morality to change over a period of time, but it does not follow that God approves. Perhaps God has 'given us over' to faulty Bible translations in the same way that he gives over sinners to their sins (Romans 1:18ff).

There is a 'giving in.' Translations that once followed the original closely now use plurals where the original uses the singular. It is a giving in to the zeitgeist, the spirit of the age. Next we shall have an electronic 'Preferred Pronoun' Bible, where each user is invited to make God whichever gender he, she, they or ze prefers. Remember you read it here first!

I appreciate your thoughts on this. You "tell it like it is."

MM tells it like it isn't a lot of the time. And he even tells it like he expects it to be in the future --with no warrant.

This thread looks a like like a thread Alex started four months ago November 4, 2021: Christian Standard Bible (CSB).

The Niv 2011 has the most though

Agreed. Which is why I've come to dislike the NIV, over time.

Liked the 1984 edition much better

Yes, in 1984 we were not so concerned with being politically correct with gender inclusive language.

Don't you ever get tired of throwing temper tantrums whenever someone voices a personal preference in regards to translations that differ from yours? People don't need to prove to you why they dislike something.

Yes, in 1984 we were not so concerned with being politically correct with gender inclusive language.

I have the Spurgeon CSB, but I haven't really used it. From what I've read it is ok, but no, I'm not a fan of the gender-neutral language used in it. I like the '84 NIV, but the only time I really use it is in my parallel bible with the KJV, NASB '77, and Amp.
