The ESV, DAVID Warnock and the UK blogosphere

The ESV, DAVID Warnock and the UK blogosphere June 22, 2005

David Warnock is not a relative of mine, but he is a UK Christian blogger who like me enjoys an astonishing and humbling number of links. Amazingly in the new UK bloggers community over at Truth Laid Bear he (like me) has been consistently in the top 5 of all UK blogs ranked for links.

Considering that the UK is such a pagan country to have two God bloggers in that kind of position is quite something. Actually to me the fact that his blog is linked to loads isnt that astonishing as it is a great blog. I like the fact that we are sometimes able to disagree respectfully about matters Christian. David comes from a Methodist background. This time David has some thoughts on The ESV Bible which considering the almost breathy admiration of the ESV that seems to be doing the rounds of the blogosphere are welcome despite the fact that he admits he hasnt read any of it!

David, come on, the translation is available online for free, let us have your thoughts on the thing itself- I would particularly love you to point out areas where you think they may have allowed doctrine to influence translation. (For this purpose, consider yourself a Catholic!)
