Revision of Old Testament issued after 14 years of work
London reports the revised Old Testament is issued after a 14 year international effort led by English and American scholars. It preserves the Masoretic Hebrew base, adds margin renderings, and retains chapter and verse divisions while introducing paragraphing and poetic formatting for key books. The aim is a faithful improvement not a new translation and expectations anticipate both favorable and critical reception.
