ESV and stirring up controversy

Last updated on: June 23, 2005 at 8:01 am By Adrian Warnock

I have been trying to stir up a little controversy by linking to peoples posts on the ESV that are in any way critical. I have been encouraged by the way people have then come back so graciously and said “O no, we didnt mean to be critical!”. I actually would love this blog to be a focus for a while of genuine robust debate about the translation- I am no sychophant to Crossway although I am impressed enough with... Read more

Jeremy rises to describe what he sees as errors in the ESV

Last updated on: June 22, 2005 at 11:27 pm By Adrian Warnock

What use is a debate without debators! Jeremy is another of my fantastic blogging protagonists. It sometimes gets close to a school debating society. Now theres an idea….two blogs arguing back and forth on an issue. A vote pre the exchange and a vote after with the rest of the blogosphere active onlookers linking to posts, rubbishing some and extending the arguments of others. If all done in a civilised manner we could recreate the dying notion of a vibrant... Read more

The ESV, DAVID Warnock and the UK blogosphere

Last updated on: June 22, 2005 at 8:43 pm By Adrian Warnock

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... Read more

I am in the middle of a blogging series at the moment about teamwork that will change the world. I want you to see that both the categories of people I have spoken of and the two dimensions they are based on are reflected in some way in the bible. I showed in the last post that the four categories are reflected in the four gospels. Now, I will show you how “ask”, “tell”, “task” and “people” are all dimensions... Read more

ESV interview: Textus receptus and the KJV only people

Last updated on: June 22, 2005 at 7:24 pm By Adrian Warnock

How did you determine the Greek text used for translation did the Textus Receptus play any role? Watch Bill Mounce respond (Windows Media format). previous | next The question is, what Greek text did we follow, and how did we handle the Textus Receptus in the process of translating? In almost every case, we used the standard critical text used in scholarship today, represented by the United Bible Society’s Nestle-Aland people. And so we pretty much stuck to that because...
