Recovery Bible = Corrupted Word Of God!

NASB is pretty fair on this one point, so I suggest comparing those two versions, and then tell me how great the KJV is.

Timotheist,


I have said in this thread, that there is no such thing as a perfect translation, however off all that’s out there, I don’t see anything better than KJV. You are not the first or the last person that said something about the translating Sheol/Hades as hell/grave and pit. Sheol is used 65 times in OT and translated 31 times as hell, 31 times as grave and 3 times as pit. Which one of these you have issue with? Are you not happy about not enough hell as some? Or you not happy with grave? I noticed that the people who don’t believe in existence of hell had major problems with KJV, so clarify please. In the NT, hades is used 11 times and translated as hell 10, and grave 1.

As far as NASB goes;

Do you mean this NASB Bible that has been edited 10 times, and revised 4 times?
Do you mean that the Bible that you referred to, read one thing in 1971, and reads opposite of that in their 2020 version? Please read both for yourself and tell me which one of those 4 version of NASB should be used for comparison.

Those translators and editors must have an oracle of God, updating them constantly on the changes to the text. Sounds like something I heard for a while in the LC.

Just some facts about NASB.

Derived from
American Standard Version

American Standard version is derived from, English Revised Version 1881–1885, which is translated from:
NT: Westcott and Hort 1881 and Tregelles 1857, (Reproduced in a single, continuous, form in Palmer 1881).
OT: Masoretic Text with some Septuagint influence).

And if anyone knows anything about Westcott and Hort, then one will understand why the NASB has been through 10 editions and 4 revisions.
Just for the record.

And here is even a bigger one for you. One of the main people who did work on NASB, has renounced it, as a total scam!

Frank Logsdon Denounces New American
Standard Version (Transcript)

*

"I must under God denounce every attachment to the New American Standard Version. I'm afraid I'm in trouble with the Lord...We laid the groundwork; I wrote the format; I helped interview some of the translators; I sat with the translator; I wrote the preface. When you see the preface to the New American Standard, those are my words...it's wrong, it's terribly wrong; it's frightfully wrong...I'm in trouble;...I can no longer ignore these criticisms I am hearing and I can't refute them. The deletions are absolutely frightening...there are so many. The finest leaders that we have today haven't gone into it [new versions of Wescott and Hort's corrupted Greek text] just as I hadn't gone into it...that's how easily one can be deceived...Are we so naive that we do not suspect Satanic deception in all of this?"

As a side note:
“In 1965, United Bible Societies (also known as USB, over 146 nations), and the Catholic Church agreed to prepare a “common text of the Bible”, and adopted a Westcott and Hort Vaticanus text.”
