About this listen

Special attention is given to various complex issues pertaining to the nature of a literal translation from Koine Greek into English. Because of the constant struggle to present a literal translation and yet a grammatically correct and readable English version, virtually all of the popular literal translations are sometimes difficult to read, and, of even more concern, they fail to express various nuances of the original language; such things imperatives, subjunctives, the type of action expressed by the verb, participial phrases, etc. This is not to accuse the popular translations of being inaccurate, as if they are teaching falsehood. However, by overlooking these complex translation issues, much of the character, style, and urgency of the original language are lost so that the reader is often missing out on the liveliness of the language and even certain applicable concepts. It is for this reason that you will often hear the preacher say, “The Greek is actually saying . . . .” As such, the objective of this translation is to accurately express such grammatical nuances of what “The Greek is actually saying.” Bibles
