Review: A must for any Bible enthusiast. - I read the Bible a lot, which I suppose in this day and age is considered... err... somewhat eccentric, shall we say? My usual book of choice is either the New King James or the latest version of the New World Translation. The former is lovely to read but when compared to a decent interlinear, not particularly accurate; the latter, although very accurate, is not the easiest to read. The Jerusalem Bible was recommended to me by a friend but since that is a weighty tome and rather an unwieldy book to snuggle up with at bed-time, I plumped for this one - it was a great price too! The New Jerusalem Bible is now my favourite version of them all (and I've read quite a few of them) being a very good balance between the "free" and the "literal" translation methods. It retains the poetic beauty of the old King James but in modern, easy to understand language that has a very moving turn of phrase. It very properly translates the Tetragrammaton (Hebrew YHWH or JHWH) too; it uses the "Yahweh" form (which is my personal preference) rather than the more commonly used "Jehovah" as God's name. Unlike the New World Translation, however, it only does so in the Hebrew (Old Testament) books. Where there is a quote from the OT in the New Testament (or Christian Greek Scriptures) the New Jerusalem uses italics with a reference to where the quote can be found. The NWT also gives a reference but keeps God's name in the NT text. It also (questionably) adds it in places where there isn't a direct quote but the translators felt it was appropriate to put it in. Which is better is down to your own personal preference but either is a welcome change from the increasingly popular trend of only using the capitalised "LORD" to replace His name the 6000 or so times the Tetragrammaton appears in the original texts. Even the old King James retained it in the "Jehovah" form a handful of times. But I digress, suffice it to say, the New Jerusalem Bible: Readers Edition is, in my humble opinion, simply the best; it's also a handy, normal book-size for ease of use. My one single complaint, however, is the quality of the cover. It is far to thin and easy to damage. I've taken the precaution of wrapping mine in thick paper just the way we were told to do with our school books way back when. Still, at this price, that really is just nit-picking!
Review: THE BIBLE - Bible in English...this drama's been going on for over 600 years with one really nasty twist to it called Henry VIII... As a person not born in an English speaking country I was quite surprised that there's so many different translations, I was also surprised how much of Henry VIII's “I do what I want” attitude is still very much alive in this very delicate subject. When I started researching and looking for the most reliable translation in English The Jerusalem Bible wasn't even mentioned on those websites and then I found out about it and found out it is being used in Vatican and I found out it was mostly work of the French and I knew exactly what happened... It's bit like Jesus was being dismissed in His early ministry by priests saying: “...prophets don't come from Galilee...”. On the same catch we could say: “...why should we read Bible in English translated from French?” The Jerusalem Bible or The New Jerusalem Bible IS THE BIBLE and You might as well not bother with KJV, RSV, NRSV, NEB, NASB, NRV etc etc. I also would like to mention that foreword and introductions by main editor Henry Wansbrough are the very first I actually read in full. This gentleman, scholar and priest put the word of God first and spared us the list of his scholarly achievements – I take my hat off. Search no more! It reads perfectly, I haven't got a problem with the word Yahweh (let's not forget it all come from God's people – The Jews) and remember, whenever You read that this or that line doesn't sound right, some of the books are 4000 years old (!) and some mere 2200 years old yet survived and some of the greatest people lived by The Bible
