What Bible Translation do you use?

Mostly read and study from ESV. Which one is the most accurate. That's probably an answer that is all over the place. Not sure, but I just prefer the ESV.

I've had a textual criticism class w/ Dr. Robinson as my prof... I triply concur with what was said about him: a scholar and a gentlemen. I didn't quite make it to the Byzantine priority view, but through his influence and Dave Black's I have a great respect for it as a legitimate text type that dates back to the 2nd century. I would challenge people to read Harry Sturz's book (if you can find it), The Byzantine Text-type and New Testament Textual Criticism.
Didn't you say my son was in that class with you?

Looking at the prices of a new copy of Sturz, I'm glad I bought mine years ago! It's an excellent resource, even foundational.

Dr. Black's position is interesting, in that in Perspectives on the Ending of Mark he defends the longer ending. Who knows, maybe Dr. Robinson will bring him completely around someday. :smilewinkgrin:

Your son audited, I believe. Not sure how much he was there, but that is where I first met him, yes.

I'm jealous you have a copy. I would love to add it to my library.
