    When I went to Bible college NASB Ryrie as well as Halley’s were required for Bible lit. I have used NASB for 45 years but love my Thompson Chain reference. I appreciated hearing your comments regarding comparing what is spent on a phone without much thought vs what is spent on a leather Bible as a couple days I hoped to buy a new leather Bible and was feeling slightly queasy spending $100.00 but considering it’s true value compared to a phone, I feel more at peace. Thank you.

      @bruceboettcher9977 2 месяца назад

      @gregtowle8830 Unless the forward explains it, it's hard to know the reasons for translators ' or publishers ' decisions as to features of a Bible. Translations vary greatly in accuracy and readability. Besides that, editions vary widely in style and tools. If you are a serious student, it pays to consider such things as cross references, footnotes, margin size, paper type, appendices, maps, historical and language notes, and more.
      Red letters are actually pretty rare. They seem to be more common in old, traditional versions like KJV and the Catholic Douay.
      I welcome any reasoned disagreement, but my studied opinion is that the purpose of red letter editions is to give an appearance exaggerated respect for Jesus.
      A good question might be why the words of the son get special attention, but not the words of the Father whom Jesus came to magnify. The followup question might be why the son often quoted the Father, but the Father doesn't quote the son. That's a discussion for another day.

    I used to have the classic edition of the Halley's Bible Handbook that contained church history. It contained the rise of the Roman Catholic Church discussing the positive and negative aspect of that denomination. The newer Halley's don't have that, I guess the new publisher thought it was too much of a negative thing about the Roman Church. As an ex-Catholic the original Halley's Bible Handbook is correct about the "Church".

    Pastor Scott I have purchased the every book you recommended- but can you recommend a comprehensive book on systematic theology? I am a southern baptist and have looked at a few texts, but can’t find a good ST book with a interjection of the Baptist faith. Thank you and praying for your health and family.

    • @ChristopherLScott
      @ChristopherLScott  2 года назад

      Good question. I believe Millard Erickson's "Christian Theology" would be a good systematic theology from the Baptist perspective. I've used it a couple times over the years, so I am not super familiar with it. But I've heard it is good. And I think he inserts the Baptist perspective. But, be sure to read the reviews and preview it if possible. Here's the link, amzn.to/3jqgAZd

I have been a Christian since 98 but since then I have gone through some stuff that I obviously caused LOL I unfortunately blamed God for it because he didn’t stop me from making The dumb decisions that I made. So anyway to fast forward to today one verse that I have noticed is missing in a lot of Bibles is Acts 8:37 (I read the king James version) Now, I understood until recently that the king James version was supposedly the most accurate version. Now I am questioning that. I am also realizing or maybe remembering that all of these Bible translations are translated by man and with the resources that we have today and potential access to the dead sea scrolls I may be just a tad bit off base; which is what i am trying to get nailed down.

      @@zalleywaalley8227 That is a good question. The KJV used what is called the "textus receptus"for the NT. However, since the KJV was translated and published in 1611 many more New Testament manuscripts have been found. Literally thousands of manuscripts have been found since them. Some of them are older and closer to the original writings of the apostles. So, as a result some of the newer translations like the NASB, NIV, NLT, ESV, etc. decided to make their textual decisions based on the older and more reliable manuscripts that the translators of the KJV did not have access too. I'll post a good article in the comments you might find helpful. Thanks for asking. Good question.

    -I know it can be an endless topic, but............ is there a book that tell that a Greek word means ( even painting a picture of the action)? ( Too often I find that most lexicons are just listing words that seem to not always seem to go together.)
    -Is it possible to find a Bible commentary that does not have a CLEAR bias?

      For Greek words, I encourage you to look for AT Robertson's "Word Pictures of the New Testament" and MR Vincent's "Word Studies of the NT." I think both of those will provide what you are looking for. In my personal opinion, I find that the New American Standard Bible is free of bias since it is published by a "foundation" and not a "book publisher." Hope that helps.
