Book, The: How The Bible Got From 1st Century Greek To 20th Century English

Dr. Pinson illustrates in detail how the Bible came to us today. Through the centuries men have devoted and often given, their lives to ensure that God's Word would be available to each nation in its own language. While evil men worked to prevent the "common person" from having access to the Word of God, faithful Christians gave everything they could offer so we can read God's message to man. This book will help the reader to become better acquainted with the people and dire circumstances they encountered, the people who sacrificed so much that we could enjoy the knowledge and hope of eternal life. In addition, Dr. Pinson expounds on the various translations and version available today so that we may make informed decisions in selecting a Bible that correctly translates the original Hebrew and Greek texts.
