Jim,First of all, I don't agree at all with the premise of your reason for the AV's existence. Also, your NASB doesn't have marginal notes or alternate readings? Sure it does if yours is a reference Bible. If I had an NASB handy (I don't), I will guarantee you that I could find a LOT of words that you would need a dictionary to look up meanings for. Any fairly literal rendering of Hebrew and Greek into English is going to include plenty of words that require defining UNLESS YOU CHANGE THEIR MEANING (NIV, NLT, Message, etc). I have read the Dedicatory to the AV and The Translators To The Reader numerous times and I can assure you of this: There is absolutely no way in the world that the AV translators would have worked from the corrupted, incomplete manuscript base that is used for today's modern versions - including your NASB. Your NASB is a literal, word-for-word translation. Certainly no easier to understand than the AV (I've read both). Why not use & trust the version with a reliable manuscript base that God has blessed for four centuries? It's not at all difficult to read and comprehend for someone with even a rudimentary grasp of the English language. |
