Customer Reviews

A Christian Library must.

This book is a must have for any Christian Apologist, and people who understand the importance of translations. Original Greek beside King James Version text PLUS 6 other translations. All in one book. Wow, it's a book that I should have bought years ago.

Best parallel NT

The Precise Parallel New Testament (PPNT) is the best parallel NT available. It combines venerable "old" translations (King James Version and Douay Rheims), and modern translations of broad appeal to Protestant and Catholic alike (New International Version, New Revised Standard Version, New American Bible, and New American Standard Bible). It also includes the Amplified Bible which, although it cannot be used for daily reading, is very useful for bible study. But the linchpin to this parallel bible is that, in addition to all these other translations, it includes the Greek text (UBS4). This combination of translations literal, loose, and the original text make this my bible of choice for sermon preparation and study. My only complaint is that it lacks ample margins. Fortunately, the parallel texts often are of differing length, leaving sometimes substantial room for marking and noting the text.

Excellent for Close Study

This is a great tool for students of the Greek New Testament.If you are a pastor and your Greek skills are falling awaythis is a very good book to add to your library. The GreekNT is included along with some historic "literal" or formalequivalent translations. I do not agree with the choice of theAmplified Bible, but that does not detract from the usefulnessof this resource. I find myself pulling it off the shelf whenI am preparing sermons. Another tool for preachers that ishighly recommended.

This is the best and most beautifully designed

parallel Bible ever published. 5-PLUS.Kevin McGowin

Perfect For Beginning GReek Students

As a student of Beginning New Testament Greek, this book was invaluable to my learning by being able to compare the Great Translations of both old time and new time. Having this is in my collection often eliminated the need for a lexicon in the preparation of word studies and has been a continuing help in my work in the Greek Language.
