No, as many would see it went much to far into inclusive language!

superior to tghe revision, same way [rior Nas
The 1984 Niv superior to the revision, likewise the prior Nas versions superior to latest revision!Oh, yes, it's perfectly fine to place the 1984 edition on your list!
And your list agrees with my list, albeit I include the KJV on mine.
Have read it
Wonder why Lockman just did not decide to put time and money into the lsb instead of going their 2020 route?
Yes, think 1978, and then 1984 revision, then 2005. and finally 2011!
Well said!
They did both
Think that they allowed the Lsb to do their work, but marketing and money was into the edition

The NLT : 1996, 2004, 2007, 2013 and 2015.
On the American side of the Atlantic :
ASV :1901, 1929, 1952, 1971, 1989
That's one line. Then there is the other line based on the 1901 :
1977, 1995, 2001 and 2020.
Revisions galore!

The only thing I can think of from 1928 is the Book of Common Prayer. Coverdale's Translation?
No. Goodspeed or maybe a modern language bible or something long out of print. Some minor translation. Suppose to be a continuation of the ASV somehow, or a revision of it.
Perhaps this one?
1924. Helen Barrett Montgomery, The Centenary Translation of the New Testament. Philadelphia: The American Baptist Publication Society, 1924. A Baptist revision of the American Standard Version (1901), called "centenary" because it was published in commemoration of the centenary of the American Baptist Publication Society
20th Century English Versions

I think you're right. It's just that the year was 1924, not 1928.

Overall, I would say (as a general principle) that just about any Bible translation that adheres to a philosophy of "formal equivalence" is going to fall into my column labeled "favorites."
