I have been perusing the 1995 LITV (Literal Translation Version) by Jay P
Green, Sr. What I have found, I believe to be the most accurate, literal
translation in modern English of the Bible IN HISTORY. Jay P Green is
among the world's top translators and textual critics, and used solely
the text of the RECEIVED TEXT (from which the KJV was translated). His
version stands alone in a gloomy sea of modern (per)versions, and brings
to the reader the glorious Word of God in undiluted, uncorrupted,
non-interpretive form. His philosophy is that even the most unleared of
people can understand the Word of God as He wrote it, and as such Green
added no commentary, nor did he (like most modern versions such as the
NIV) add a hundred thousand words to the text to make it "more
understandable". LET GOD BE TRUE BUT EVERY MAN A LIAR!
Now, what I'm posting about is a proposition. You can order this bible
in deluxe (leather bound, gold edges, verse paragraphed, for whatever that's
worth) edition for $25.00 plus shipping from Sovereign Grace Publishers at
(800)-447-9142. OR I can sell them to you for $20.00 flat (includes
shipping). The difference is about 7 bucks or so. The reason I'm doing
this is because I want to get Green's translation out there. I am
earning NOTHING from this- I'm actually losing a small amount in
postage. But I can contract SGP for 54 bibles at $1000. If I get enough
responses (say, 25 or more responses) to this message, I will go ahead
and get the contract and ship them to you for $20.00. This way if you
like it and want to buy a few for your friends, you don't have to buy 54
of them to get the cheaper price.
As a serious student and teacher of God's most precious, inspired Word, I
seriously recommend that every believer get one of these bibles, either
from Sovereign Grace Publishers or from me. I'm trying to get the Word
of God out- the Word itself can do the rest.
If you would like a deluxe edition of the LITV for $20.00 then respond to
this message. If I get enough, I'll e-mail you back and ask for your
names and addresses.
In Jesus Christ,
R. Paul Watkins
