Description
About the Book
Dr. Theodore Letis helps those lost among an overabundance of Bible translations return to the reliability and trustworthiness of Christendom's most celebrated and accepted Bible - the Authorized Version.
Book Synopsis
Christians today have access to a wide variety of Bible translations suited to any temperament. However, the competing textual theories of various specialists, and the pragmatic concerns of the Bible marketing industry have left many overwhelmed by choice as they seek a reliable version of God's Word. In this informative booklet (formerly titled A New Hearing for the AV), the late ecclesiastical historian Dr. Theodore P. Letis helps those lost among an overabundance of Bible translations return to the reliability and trustworthiness of Christendom's most celebrated and accepted Bible - the Authorized Version, also known as the King James Version.
His study highlights the superiority of the Authorized Version's underlying text, translation technique, and English usage. He also shows its link with our past and how it is a unifying factor for the present as he cuts a compelling case for its continued use in homes, churches, and schools.
For those seeking discernment in such matters, Dr. Letis' teachings are a fresh call directing young pilgrims, as well as seasoned saints, back to the "old paths" of biblical Christianity.
