That is what makes this translation worth owning. Unless one can read Koine Greek, it is best to have more than one translation of the scriptures, anyway. The volume is beautiful inside and out, an thus is not only good to read, but looks good on the shelf. Quality of binding, printing & cover is exceptional….It should meet or exceed anyone’s expectations. The content flows nicely and has a few rocky places. Direct but smooth, even the parts with less dialogue are amazing and interesting to read. The Orthodox New Testament (ONT) is a magnificent achievement. While most translators these days spend their energies on contemporaneity and/or political correctness, the editors of the ONT went back to the original Greek, as approved by the Ecumenical Patriarchate, and produced a majestic English text worthy of The Miles Coverdale translation in the elevation and beauty of its language and of the NASB in its clarity and precision. It should by all rights become a standard itself. The “Orthodox” of all denominations ought to be grateful to the editors for their work. ————————————————————————————————–Instead of clicking “buy it now”, -Click “Add to cart” to combine your purchases and shipments! -Free Local Pickup in DFW area!
