King James Only Controversy, The:
Can You Trust Modern Translations?
by James White
Highly Recommended Study On The Topic
Modern Bible translations still come under attack from the King James
Only camp. In this revision of a book continually in print for more than ten
years, James R. White traces the development of Bible translations old
and new, investigating the differences between versions like the NIV,
NASB, and NKJV and the Authorized Version of 1611. Written with the
layperson in mind, The King James Only Controver sy leads the reader
through the basic issues of the debate and into the more complex issues of
textual criticism. Enlightening reading for all Christians. Why a second
edition? Fourteen years since the writing of the original has seen not only
developments in the textual critical field, but the King James Only
advocates have been writing books in that time as well, most of which seek
to respond to my work. Some key examples, plus an expanded
bibliography, bring the work up to date on that level. Further, those
advocates have attempted to raise counter examples, and so the number
of passages addressed in the work is expanded. During that time I have
addressed this topic so many times that I have developed a number of
useful illustrations to help the layperson understand the key issues, and
these are included in the work as well. Finally, the explosion onto the
scene of Bart Ehrman and his works on the New Testament are noted as
well. As a result, the next edition of The King James Only Controversy will
provide a valuable addition to the library of anyone seeking to understand
the trustworthiness of the New Testament today.! --James R. White,
explaining his reasoning for a revision of this book
Features:
This book will not disappoint. Dr. James White does it again! A
masterpiece that will keep Christians together rather than having
translation wars. I myself love the new translations, especially the NASB
but ultimately it is lovely to see a proper scholarly look on this controversy.
Please buy this book, you will regret not picking this up!
For all the KJV-onlyists, this book shouldn't be offensive to you, I shared
this with a family member who is a die-hard 1611 KJV Onlyist, she liked
the book except for a few parts.
