Tyndale House has made the NLT interlinear available in beta form online. It looks interesting. One of the great values of this tool, I think, will be having a dynamic equivalence translation presented in interlinear form.
I do want to remind folks of some of the notes I’ve made before on the use and misuse of such tools.
I’ve begun using the Orthodox Study Bible in my lectionary reading, which brought me to Isaiah 64 a couple of days ago. It’s been that kind of a week, so I haven’t had time to comment on it until now. First, let me note that having a study Bible with an overtly Christological interpretation of…
Dave lists 13 things Greek teachers won’t tell you, but I must say that most of mine did. And Dave does admit that many Greek teachers do say these things. But do students listen? Do people in the pews and those who read books get the message? My experience is that many do not. Not…
