The Concise Concordance to the New Revised Standard Version

Providing students of biblical languages with a grammatically literal, word-for-word translation of the Hebrew Old Testament, the 'NIV Interlinear Hebrew-English Old Testament' is a comprehensive four-volume reference work. The English text is the New International Version, complete with special indentation and paragraphing, section headings, and footnotes. The entire preface to this version is included. With the Hebrew text being the 'Biblia Hebraica Stuttgartensia', commonly known as the Stuttgart Bible, the latest critical text is used. All the necessary variant readings (Kethib-Qere) and major textual conjectures are included in the footnotes. The interlinear translation is based on the vocabulary of the New International Version so that the Bible student may use the 'Interlinear' to identify the Hebrew word or phrase underlying any portion of the English text and thus gather helpful information for word studies or interaction with linguistically based commentaries. For formal students of Hebrew, whether they are beginning or reviving their studies, the 'Interlinear' provides a word-for-word translation, which is extremely beneficial if a student wants to read large portions of the Hebrew Old Testament without constant reference to lexicons and grammars. Even more important, the 'Interlinear' provides a grammatically literal translation, a feature not found in any previous interlinear translations of the Hebrew text. In this respect, it greatly aids in the first step of exegesis - the identification of nominal and verbal inflections. Other features include a unique format that allows the student to read in the proper English direction of left to right for an English phrase that translates an individual Hebrew word. This overcomes the constant difficulty of reading backwards, a problem in most previous Hebrew interlinears. A further complication found in most interlinears is determining where the translation for one word ends and the next begins. To eliminate this confusion, all English words used to translate any one Hebrew word are connected with hyphens. Volume 1, covering Genesis-Deuteronomy, includes full explanations of the format, translation theories and techniques, and textual criticism employed throughout the Old Testament volumes. There is also a special introduction for the general reader on how to use an interlinear for word studies and learning Hebrew. Volume 2 includes Joshua-2 Kings; Volume 3, 1 Chronicles-Song of Songs; and Volume 4, Isaiah-Malachi. The 'NIV Interlinear Hebrew-English Old Testament' is the ideal work for beginning and intermediate students of Hebrew as well as for those ministers and teachers who wish to revitalize their language training..

The New King James Version and English Standard Version permit close word-study, while the New Living Translation and The Message present the text as its earliest audiences might have experienced it. The complete texts of the four translations featured in this volume are conveniently displayed on facing pages (two translations per page), with the same set of verses on each one.

The Essential Evangelical Parallel Bible

Oxford University Press adds to its prestigious list of parallel-text biblical-reference resources with the Evangelical Parallel New Testament. This volume features the New Testaments of eight translations used by various segments within the evangelical community today. It is particularly notable for including the recently published Holman Christian Standard Bible, The Message, the New Living Translation, and Today's New International Version. The texts are arranged on facing pages, with the texts of four translations on each page. The Evangelical Parallel New Testament shows the translation philosophies and word choices made by diverse groups of evangelical scholars during the last three decades of the twentieth century. This useful volume features three interesting essays: one on the specific characteristics of each translation and where it falls in the spectrum of approaches, a second on formal vs. functional equivalence in translation, and a third on the underlying Greek text of the New Testament.
