03/05/2002 Entry: "Bible4today"

The Bible4today project is worth a look. Here's an extract from the home page:

Before the days of the printing press the language of the Bible would automatically change with the times because it would either be told as stories passed on from one person to another, or the priest would read from the Latin and translate (or interpret) into modern English.  With printing, the Bible became available to everyone, but the language became fixed in time.  This project is an attempt to return to a living language to express the truths of the Bible.

There's a discussion on the subject of Bible translations here. My friend Craig Adams has written a helpful article on choosing a translation. My own (more modest) effort is here.

If you look at my blog you'll see links to other blogs done by (reformed) Christians, who in addition link to many other blogs also in the main Christian. Just FYI....

Not that I know of, but I'm very new to the blog scene.
