Editorial on New Version Of The Bible Translation

The article reviews a modern Protestant translation of the New Testament published by Oxford and Cambridge University Presses. It notes 1 million copies expected worldwide with 250000 en route to the U S and Canada and discusses panel work led by Rev C H Dodd and language changes from the King James Version. It weighs readability against preserving literary beauty and cites changes to terms and phrases. It concludes that despite simplification the translation loses some original beauty and that the Bible remains uniquely exquisite compared with other works.
