Product Description
The Source New Testament with Extensive Notes on Greek Word Meaning contains abundant and detailed documentation for the meaning of hundreds of Greek words which appear in the New Testament. The Source is the only N.T. translation based on word meaning evidence from the recently discovered papyri and inscriptions. For centuries, translators had to guess the meaning of hundreds of N.T. words. After 1976, huge numbers of papyri and inscriptions were discovered containing these N.T. words in everyday documentation thus revealing their meaning. The Source is the only New Testament translation by a Classical Greek scholar (rather than theologian) and not financed or translated by a committee of a specific denomination.
Reader Reviews
This translation of the New Testament is a must have for everyone who claims to take the Bible seriously--bibliophiles, translators, scholars, seminarians, and anyone who seeks a translation of the New Testament that reflects the original Greek and not denominational prejudices. Dr. Nyland's exegetical work is nothing short of phenomenal. She includes both extensive footnotes on the original Greek and devotes space when necessary to orient the reader to the historical context within which the texts were written. It's a tad expensive, but worth every dollar! Justin R. Cannon, Founder Inclusive Orthodoxy
