The story of translators and translations of the English Bible has no ending. That is one of the reasons why it needs telling again and again. Particularly in the light of new translations which have appeared in recent decades, fresh perspective is needed by this generation.

An attempt is made here to put in brief and readable compass some of the high lights of this never-ending parade of translators and translations. Many books have been written in this field. Some of them are very excellent; others are too tedious end technical for the desires and needs of the layman. This work is introductory, a taste which it is hoped will tempt the reader to explore further.

The story told here is primarily factual and illustrative. Those who wish to pursue the pros and cons of the accuracy and comparative values of various translations in detail can find voluminous resources elsewhere.

Space problems dictated the necessity of confining this particular story largely to the channels of Protestant translation activities. Significant work is being done in other circles, but could not be covered here.

Indebtedness to certain standard works is acknowledged. Among older reference works are Eadie: The English Bible and Moulton: The History of the English Bible. More recent are Butterworth: The Literary Lineage of the King James Bible and Robinson (ed.): The Bible in Its Ancient and English Versions. The Ancestry of Our English Bible, by Price, is a standard classic recently revised and brought up to date. Those who wish to pursue this field into more detailed and scholarly coverage will find Our English Bible in the Making, by May, most helpful.

Other translations, not yet published, are on the way. Wide reading in the work of many translators has been found helpful by generation after generation of Bible readers. It is hoped that this book will make both the problems and the accomplishments of translators more evident than they have formerly been.

Nice style but somewhat abrasive.
Color: Pat5 White Striped, Size: X-Large
The fit was perfect. However, the material for a mock turtle is rather abrasive on my neck, and it wasn’t as comfortable as I was hoping it to be.

Super soft, runs small, long tail
High quality, super soft, good neck height, nice price, ready to go right out of the dryer, medium thick material, works well under a sport coat or sweat shirt, snug fit--runs about one size small. Length is about four inches too long. So, ideally made for tall and skinny people (I am short and thick), but going one size up works fine for me except have to tuck it in due to the length.

This shirt is a cheat code
Color: Black, White, Navy Blue, Light Gray, Size: XX-Large
These shirt fits my body so perfectly! I’m 6’5” 310 pounds but I look 260 pounds. I sweat easily and I’m very sensitive to the material a piece of clothing is made of. This shirt is lightweight, extremely breathable, and feels like silk on the skin. It compliments and accentuates my contours to enhance my physique. I only tried on one and I’ve already ordered 12 more hehe. This is a cheat code.

I Love the collar
Color: Black, White, Navy Blue, Wine Red, Size: Large
Great T-shirt. I can wear this casually with jeans or with a sports coat. The fabric is soft. There is no label in the collar, so you can wear it however you want.
