Lexham English Bible (LEB)

The Lexham English Bible (LEB)

According to its foreword, the translator’s intent was to achieve:

“unparalleled…transparency with the original language text…. It was produced with the specific purpose of being used alongside the original language text of the Bible. Existing translations, however excellent they may be in terms of English style and idiom, are frequently so far removed from the original language texts of scripture that straightforward comparison is difficult for the average user…. The ability to make such comparisons easily in software formats…makes the need for an English translation specifically designed for such comparison even more acute.”

Module version: 1.1
Description: Greek New Testament in the Original Greek, Byzantine Majority Text

What is the Byzantine Text?

The New Testament is translated from Greek. Editions of the Greek New Testament are prepared from manuscripts, which were copied by hand and do not always agree. Manuscripts are grouped into families or texts based on their shared readings. The Byzantine Text is a family that contains 90%+ of all Greek New Testament manuscripts.

Why use the Byzantine Text?

Dr. Maurice Robinson, the most respected living proponent of the Byzantine priority theory, summarized the case for Byzantine Priority in this “New Testament Textual Criticism: The Case for Byzantine Priority” (Also available in theWORD Bible Software) initially published in the appendix to the Robinson-Pierpont 2005 edition.

Bible Compare Isa 7:14 virgin

In this post we will compare a lot of English Bibles on the passage of Isa 7:14

Isa 7:14 Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.

I don’t necessarily want to do a full defense of this translation of Scripture because I am not doing these Bible compares to exposit Bible (absolutely). But in the end analysis, that is exactly what we will have to do. The point is to compare how different translators treated difficult passages.

Note that I am using theWord free Bible Software to do this analysis which is very easy with the sofBible Compare Isa 7:14 virgin tware package.
