New Living Translation Bible (Giant Print) (ISBN 0842333916)

Categories:


Nice Translation:
I started reading the New Living Translation while working through an upper level course on Greek exegesis. I was simply looking for a version that emphasized a sentence-by-sentence translation as opposed to a word-for-word translation (because I was required to do this type of translating for my assignments). I was pleasantly surprised with the NLT. It is a very impressive work, and makes for very smooth reading. The translation team also made the wise decision to translate the dates in the text into their modern equivalents. So, whereas previous translations might read that a certain event happened in, say, the twelfth year of a certain king, the NLT will (based on historical data) read that it happened in "586 BC" or "on April 22nd, 722 BC" They have also done the same thing with other forms of measurement (including currency, weight, and time). This makes the events seem much easier to relate to. For these reasons (and others too) I think this is a really good version. So, if you are looking for a translation that focuses more on the overall meaning of each sentence, and not just the meaning of each word, I heartily recommend this one.


NLT Bible:
I was looking for a Bible easy to read for both translation and type setting. This Bible was excellent in both categories. I can now read my Bible without my eyes squinting or getting tired and read longer because the translation is in modern terms so I don't have to ponder on what the message is really saying. This would be a great Bible for new Christians who are eager to understand the word of God without constantly looking up references.


NLT is understandable.:
I recomend this product to help study Gods word. The giant print is great for folks with some vision problems. I am a king james reader mainly, but NLT is a good study aid.


Great Purchase:
I am glad I found this bible I have been looking for. Great Price And received it quickly.


Guidebook to Life:
I sent it as a gift to my older brother in california.
