We don't need another version of the Bible any more than we need to re-write the Constitution. What we need is born again, spirit-led people to trust and obey that which has already been declared.
Hallelujah amen
You are right. We need more believers that actually read the Bible that we already have and trust and obey God!
Especially if you understand the Hebrew/Aramaic and Greek text in which the Spirit inspired.
How are you saved without an accurate Bible? If it's not accurate, it's not the word of God.

"IT IS BETTER TO TRUST IN THE LORD THAN TO PUT CONFIDENCE IN MAN." - Psalm 118:8; KJV Bible
Great Video. I have a question. What is the original text used for translation of the LSB/NASB. Is it the Masoretic Text of the Old Testament, and the Textus Receptus family of the Greek New Testament as does the KJV translation? If not please explain what is the original versions of text from and what is missing if anything from KJV. Thanks.
Exactly ..just beware and test the spirit s...
Absolutely! Agreed 100%!
Man still had to write it and we have to be able to trust those men that got together in 400? AD to vote on every single book to leave it in as cannon or reject the book as non-canonical. Some versions are simply better...some bibles won't even use the word 'blood'. I believe these People and the publishers of the NASB are top notch. Didn't know about the ESV statements.
Isa 2:22
This sounds awesome. Been looking for a translation that follows the original source. Thank you!
A thoughtful, prayerful study of the Holy Scriptures based on the original Hebrew and Greek manuscripts is to be recommended and admired.
I grew up memorizing the KJV in the 70s. In my lifetime I’ve seen a couple dozen translations, each claiming to be better than the other. This over saturation is tiring, I’ll just stick with my trusty old KJV, thanks…
kjv is not very accurate,

You mean the most anti Semitic translation ever. The KJV was written when anti semitism was still rife and endorsed. It's translation shows this in many ways.. Thus it's an anti Christ version.Christ was a Jew do you know..
Please read in the LSB-Bible: John 6: 47 „Truly, truly, I say to you, he who believes has eternal life.“
Doesn’t everybody believe in something, even atheists?
The correct verse is: „Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me hath everlasting life.“
Which one is closer to the original Greek?
@@KenJackson_US I think you mean Greek.
@@KenJackson_USwhich one do you think is more true? Believe or believe on me
What we think is more true doesn't matter. The most important thing is to do the right translation.
@@EvieBear236: _"I think you mean Greek."_
Oops! You are indeed correct. Fixed it.
Very helpful. Thank you.
I'm excited to study this translation. Thank you.
With respect, I have to say that the bell I hear ringing is that John Macarthur is involved with this. Ok, it may well be good, but here is one problem I have.
John Macarthur was asked in an interview what problem he had with evangelicals disgreeing with calvinisim. His reply was that they did not interpret Scripture properly. So, does he believe this translation supports calvinisim???
All translations support Calvin's view of salvation.
There are a lot of scholars who have long disagreed with this assertion.
That statement can only be an assertion, by itself it cannot be truth.
Calvinist’s and pre-tribers are both over the top in defense of their positions. It’s uncomfortable to watch.
Fortunately, (1) his involvement was very little and (2) the committee's calvinism didn't creep into the text. So the LSB is safe for use.
@@EvieBear236no they don't
This LSB translation Swapped out the word DRAGON for JACKAL in almost every Old Testament Book. I have a MASSIVE issue with that as I do believe the Bible did mean Dragon (now called Dinosaurs) in many of those verses. JACKAL is a type of Dog, and Dragon is a type of unnamed Dinosaur. These are NOT the same...which is it?
We won't know until God delivers the English text.
A "dragon" is a "dinosaur"? LOL
Dragon = serpent, I thought?
@@shayalynn certain Dragons/Dinosaurs are a TYPE of Serpent. so certain ones can be called a serpent. like the Leviathan which is a water/land dinosaur.
@@shayalynnin either case it is not jackal...
Upon what manuscripts is the Legacy bible based? I steer clear of the codices Vaticanus and Sinaiticus.
Apparently the translators based it on the MT for the OT and (primarily) the NA27 for the NT, the latter of which draws most heavily on Codex Alexandrinus (and its associated text family).
This is a Critical Text translation. It would be closer to the Vaticanus/Sinaiticus MSS than the Byzantine tradition
Great, the corrupt translator of the vatican. Which represents all the new age Bibles and modifications of many biblical verses.
Most Accurate manuscripts, of course
The LSV was done by all Calvinists so it has preconceived leanings.
I love this! I’ve already learned some information just in this video I don’t know! Thank you guys!
Having learned of the Catholic influence in the ESV, I'll stick with the KJV and Geneva Bibles. I'm not going to waste money on another new translation.
Being a seeker of truth via discernment, the KJV changed "passover" to Easter?
Just a thought.
The blue letter bible download has all bible versions as well as reading the bible directly translated from Aramaic..
Seek truth.. I know and do read, the KJV myself but also the Witcliff bible is one of the earliest transportation as well..

That’s exactly what they did when they had the King James Bible they had over 50 people translating the king James version from the Greek and Hebrew into English so we have it in our English language. Why are we always trying to reinvent the wheel when God has already given us his word in English
Because new manuscripts have been discovered since?
The King James Bible is an antiquated 400-year-old Anglican translation which utilizes Elizabethan prose and is completely disconnected from contemporary English-speaking laypeople, incorporating multitudinous Medieval-period archaisms, interpolations, mistranslations, translational inconsistencies, and unjustifiable omissions. Several modern translations rectify these shortcomings.
@@mariebo7491 New manuscripts are fake
The KJV was written in a form of English that the common English speaker wasn't even using at the Time. Go ask the average person on the street what a husbandman is.
@@GabrielEddy Not to mention the fact that those "Elizabethan" words weren't even around until Queen Elizabeth (the 1st) decided she wanted an elite language that would set her apart from the "commoner". Then, King James decided he wanted that in his translation.
The most widely published and trusted Bible ever is the Authorized King James Bible. When I was first saved, I explored several Bible versions, which only led to confusion. When I started reading the KJV, the confusion began to fade, and I learned that if I came to a verse hard to understand, I didn't need another translation, I would look at a more simple verse on the same subject that would be an aid to help me understand the harder verse. God has confirmed the King James Bible in the hearts of millions of believers generation after generation for over 300 years. The King James Bible is not copyrighted, it is free to print and publish as God's word should be. As freely as you have received, so freely give.
Dear @sidrojoe, Hello ! A lot of things you said were wrong.
The Latin Vulgate has been more widely loved and trusted than the KJV. Of course it has been around about a 1000 years longer than the KJV. The nt Greek Textus Receptus and the OT the Masoretic Text has also been around longer and used more than the KJV. I suppose you were not aware of that.
" led to confusion". Actually the presence of obsolete words in the text of the KJV is very confusing, particularly because most people are not aware they are reading obsolete words. Most people are also not aware of where the translation errors are in the KJV. they just trust the text and never check to see if the text is accurately translated.
"I didn't need another translation". The Translators of the KJV said, if you want to know the meaning of the Scriptures, you need to use a variety of Translations. This is wise advice that everyone should follow "if they want to understand Scripture. You can find their statement about his in the Preface of the 1611 KJV.
God has greatly used the KJV to spread the Gospel and teach people to grow towards God for over 400 years. God Greatly used it in my life. Yes, God can certainly use the imperfect things to glorify Him.
However, I am aware that there are better, more accurate, more trustworthy English translations that are better to use to study from today than the KJV.
Illustration - People used the T-model Ford for a 100 years, and I know a few that still uses one. They get you there and they seem to run forever. But there are some better cars today. Then again, no cars are prefect, like our English translations of God's Word.
"The King James Bible is not copyrighted". Incorrect ! Since 1611 the KJV has been under a perpetual crown copyright that never expires. The Cambridge University owns the rights to the copyright (they may share the rights with someone else). Any one wanting to print the KJV in Great Britian must first secure permission to do so from the holders of the copyright. The US refuses to abide by the British copyrights law.
From a morally/ethical perspective, we as Christians, should only use KJV Bibles published by printers who have copyright permission to print the KJV. The worker is worthy to the rewards of his labor without others stealing his work from him.
"As freely as you have received, so freely give." God's Grace is free because He has paid the price of what it costs.
Yes, someone may have freely given you a KJV Bible, but it is likely that someone had to pay for the Bible because Bibles are usually not free (even KJV Bibles).
You are misusing and misapplying the verse - "freely as you have received, so freely give." The verse is not speaking of Bibles.
Be Well, DZ
@@Silverheart1956 The King James Bible is the best selling BIBLE of ALL time. The word of God is freely GIVEN, it is not copyrighted.
@@sidrojoe
It is possible that the KJV is the best selling of all time, because the Latin
Vulgate has existed in a time when there was no printing press so distribution was greatly hinted by the fact that availability was subject to hand copying (makin.g them VERY expensive)
The KJV was created after the invention of the printing press so it's distribution was greatly enhance over the Latin Vulgate, and the printing press made it considerably cheaper and more available to the average man with most modest means.
So it makes sense that the KJV was the best selling of all time. There are other considerations.
There are also other categories in which the KJV is number one.
The KJV is the BEST SELLING translation of God's Word of all time.
The KJV is the MOST WIDELY READ Translation of God's Word, of any Translation,
in any language.
The KJV has the most obsolete words of any translation ofGod's Word that is
popularly used today.
The KJV is recognized for it literary quality
However there are categories in which the KJV is not number one in,
The KJV is the second best selling translation in the world after the NIV.
(for the past ten yrs. or so)
The KJV is not the most accurately translated translation of God's Word.
The KJV used some of the lesser quality Greek manuscripts as it's source texts
The KJV is one of the worse translations commonly used for children to understand
Sorry, but you are wrong about the KJV and is copyright.As I said the KJV has been under perpetual crown copyright since it was first published in 1611. Someone has given you incorrect information.
The Scriptures in the Greek and Hebrew were never under any copyright
The WEB Bible was created as public domain and is the only Bible that was created without a copyright since it creation. It was intended to be created as public domain.
The KJV emphatically was not created in that way.
Read what I wrote before again I have researched the issue and the information I gave you is correct.
If the publisher of your KJV Bible did not have permission to publish from Cambridge University Press, then it is a printing of the Bible that is unethically made in rebellion in refusal to acknowledge the Copyright laws of Great Britian.
Be Well, DZ
The waters are already muddied by so many translations it is most confusing to the layman. The last thing we need is another Bible translation.
Just learn Greek already.
Yes you’re right. My question is what about a translation that was never copyrighted, whom hath the right to copyright Gods word/s and all other co-writers that are passed on? What about a translation that has been paid for with both blood and self sacrifice? All of these long before my conception and birth. Most likely yours’ as well if you are reading this post.
@@stillfishing4sheepIf you haven't watched them, I highly recommend the trilogy of film documentaries covering the history of the Bible. They are available on YT. First one is called 'A Lamp in the Dark, the forgotten history of the Bible', followed by 'Tares Among the Wheat, sequel to A Lamp in the Dark', then 'Bridge to Babylon, Rome and the road to ecumenism' (not entirely sure about that last bit). They are very good and informative.
@carymalaski214 I would say that would be the apostles, and the holy spirit 🙌 I may have misunderstood.
From what I under stand it is not a new translation. The LSB, published in 2021, is yet another version of the NASB. Published by the Lockman Foundation, the NASB was revised in 2020. The LSB, is published by the Lockman Foundation in coordination with the Three Sixteen Publisher and the John MacArthur Charitable Trust. (Google search results.)
Muddy water ..... Before the Lifeway Bookstore in our area closed, I used to roam the isles Bibles and have experienced the same confusion, first hand. Eyes got too old to read the small print in my KJV. Pastor recommended the NIV. Lifeway promoted the HCSB, at the time. I was also urged to get a hulking study Bible.
I bought a NIV. Then A HCSB. A few more months later, I bought a KJV study Bible. That was before I learned the study part was adapted from the NIV. Today, my primary Bible, for daily use, is a plain, large print KJV. The rest are on a shelf, serving as a seldom used reference source.
What a mess... (The comments say it all)
Why we should seek accuracy and not man's opinions, yes.
@@Bigfoottehchipmunk Seek to understand man's opinions about God's thoughts but demand to know the difference.
Thank you, exciting news!
Your translation Philosophy sounds very good. To go further what is your manuscript philosophy? Does the Legacy Bible maintain the Received text or the Critical text?
Critical text. It is a rework of the NASB.
Ironically, the same naturalistic philosophy used to establish old earth that Ken hates, is likewise used to establish new bible texts which Ken loves. Basically, papyrologists, and paleontologists wielding varying degrees of probabilities based on theories. ...purify your hearts, ye double minded.
I will stick with my KJV. I respect Dr McArthur but I don't trust copyrighted translations.
So you don’t believe the Bible when it says the laborer is worthy of his wage? You don’t believe Bible translators deserve to be paid?
The KJV was also copyrighted genius🤦
Geniuses like Craig can't discern between copyrighted for money or not.

Bro. You can print it and reproduce it all you want. For free. Try that with the NIV or NASB. Etc. Let us know what your $$ fine is.
We already have an English translated Bible, the king James, I do believe we can get saved under other translations because it does have some of the correct wording and translation, but they do not agree with one another. This is an issue. This is why I stand on the King James only.

Great interview!
This is quite remarkable and welcoming to me. I am no scholar of languages; however, I do know the extreme importance of the literal translations. I know how difficult itis to get a pure translation - speaking my home language and American - as many people today do. Thank you Dr.Chou and Mr. Ham for blessing us with this effort for purity of scripture - so many people have such even strange concepts about the Word. The clearer, the better. I think God had a perfect reason for the difficulty in translation, to makeus research all of His Word, I am just as guilty. So many, manydistractions!
You are aware that "literal translations" are often not the "clearer" Translations. The major reason Dynamic Equivalence Translations exist is to make Formal Equivalence Translations clearer. A really literal translation makes it difficult to understand cultural idioms, so you do have to become very acquainted with cultural contexts and even the languages. Most people don't have that much time.
It is always wise to use more than one translation to study from. I have always recommended that effective study should use at least one Formal Equivalence Translation and one
Dynamic Equivalence Translation. That helps balance out each methods weakness. DZ

The start of the video says that the Bibal defines what it means by "day"
The Hebrew day was sunset to sunset. Its length varied with the seasons but averaged about 24 hours.
The first sunset was on the fourth day. The first four days were NOT normal Hebrew days however long they were.
Ah ha, so you've noticed that according to Genesis - the sun wasn't made till the fourth day! I've brought this up in public forums and it's surprised many a church going believer. But it's in the book - black on white - whatever language you chose.
@alanclark3400 Yes, that part of the Bible is partially figurative just like where it uses the word sunset even though it is the Earth that is moving.
What is your evidence that the first 7 days, mentioned in Genesis were not 7 periods of 24 hours in duration? I used to be a theistic evolutionist, fully believing in the Big Bang and the earth is 13 billion years old. No longer. I have no valid reason to deny 7 days of 24 hours length.

As Ken Ham talked with Abner Chou, i was researching chapters 1-11 of Genesis about the LSB in comparison with the Hebrew text. Generally compatible translation, but i have very high expectations for a literal translation, so some notable things to share
1) LSB used 'man' for 'ha'adam' in 1:27 and 6:6 - the man or Man is better
2) 2:6 - LSB has 'a stream would rise from the earth' for 'eid' which is actually 'a mist' would ascend from the earth as water vapour ( Job 36:27). LSB made a mistake here as how could a stream water the face of the whole earth?
3) 3:18- 'eitsev hassadeh' should be 'the grass of the field' not 'the plants...' Hence cereals like wheat, barley, oats were specified as food from the beginning.
4) 4:15- 'put a sign to Cain', wonder why LSB chose a specific narrow meaning 'appointed'?
5) 6:3- LSB 'because he indeed is flesh', when the Hebrew was 'in that he also is flesh' - why the causative and affirmative sense?
6) 6:4- this is often found in other translations too - "also afterward" actually "v'gam acharei-chein" meaning "and even after so" indicating how the Nephilim came into existence rather than two occurrences at different times; the second clause confirming it about the sons of God coming into the human women (daughters of Man)
7) 10:11- LSB "he went out to Assyria" not likely as Assyria was not a named place then and there was no directional preposition 'to'. Should be "Asshur went out..." as Asshur was a son of Shem and became ancestor of Assyrians.
8) 11:2- LSB translated "mikkedem" as "east" instead of "from east" indicating the early travellers alighted from ark at Ararat and went westwards to find the plain of Shinar.
I speak 4 languages, and was an interpreter for the deaf. Any time you go from one language to another, there are words or phrases in one language that do not have an equivalent word in the second language. Also there are cultural cues that affect the meaning, synonyms, or usage of a word that is/are particular to the source language that would be different in the target language. So a “literal” translation is not as “accurate” as these people would have you believe. Also included in the mix is the translator’s mindset and doctrinal beliefs, that would affect or influence how a word or phrase in the source language is taken to mean, in turn, affecting what words are chosen in the target language to use. There are also words in the source language that have no modern equivalent in the target language. Dynamic equivalent translations are good in that they tend to go for meaning based on context and culture, but seem “weak” in how they translate. All of this to say it’s best to read and study from more than one translation, to get the “whole” message of the verses. The one major red flag to me is knowing that John MacArthur believes that the spiritual gifts of the Holy Spirit listed in I Cor. 12, died out with the apostles. They also dont think God heals very often nowadays. I think His team of translators, therefore, with that mindset, would translate things under that influence. No thank you.
@@gerriebell2128
I also speak 4 languages and studied both Hebrew and Greek. I understand what you mean about translation but I don't agree totally with all you say, especially when comparing with the original languages. Literal translation is also careful with culture and context, whilst dynamic equivalence also depends on the translators' mindset and beliefs. Yet I always remember what Jesus said about iota and stroke of letter not passing away, and I choose to respect the exact word used, even if it may be difficult to understand, or we think inappropriate or we feel a better word should be used. God and the inspired authors chose these words.
@@luketan7451 Thank you for answering me. Personally I don’t get super hung up on trying to find the “perfect” or “best” translation, because I don’t think “perfect” is possible (which was mostly my point before), and because I think God is always going to make sure there is always “enough” of the Truth about Him that we need, for having a relationship with Him and living a godly life. God isn’t playing “stump the students” with us. He loves us and won’t withhold the truth. So whatever mistakes are in translations, God will give us and make sure we have what we need. In the first 50 years after the crucifixion, maybe more, people did not have access to the whole of scripture like we have today, and they were able to live godly lives and worship God in spirit and in truth. Jesus promised the Holy Spirit would lead us to truth. So I think we are supposed to do the best we can and obey and live out what we DO know, and love others like Jesus loves us. (The discussion about dragon vs jackal was Interesting, but not necessary for salvation like the Gospel is.)
Again, thank you for the little conversation. God bless you and keep you.
@@gerriebell2128
God bless you too. Just a gentle response, I just feel that God has in fact spoken and for the gospels, the truth was orally transmitted till God inspired the authors to write it down. For the epistles they were already extant but limited by circulation. Definitely, God loves us and is patient with us. But we must beware the "He will understand us" mentality. When we love someone, the words he or she says to us mean a great deal. And a faulty, diluted and half correct translation can lead a new believer or even conscientious veterans into wrong attitude and practice. How can we build a proper relationship based on incomplete or incorrect perceptions? How can we know the God that we say we believe if here and there, there are human interpretations that may be different from what He wants us to know? I agree there is no perfect translation but let us strive to get as close to the original as possible. Some people said they are okay with just knowing the principles of the text but how can we really know them if not through the text? As for 'tannim' translated as 'jackals' and not 'dragons', for me it's not just about basic salvation, but the truth being lost in the translation and there are other important matters like apologetics and prophecy and complete Bible picture. Words in Hebrew can lose their actual meaning when we interpret them using modern equivalence, for example is it 'badger's skin' for one of the coverings of the Tabernacle? What is 'behemot' in Job? (Just a hippo?) What are 'tannim'? These can be important like in Answers In Genesis ministry. Please bear with me, I'm just sharing my heart.
@@luketan7451 yes I agree with you. That is why I think we need to have the Holy Spirit in and with us leading us to truth, as Jesus said. Secondly, I believe that God WILL make sure there is the scripture we need to know proper practice and right attitudes, there truth about who God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit are. (But we need to SEEK the truth too) and thirdly, I think sometimes we have a hard time with so many translations available, so we just need to “do the best we can” and not get hung up on small things. But “do our best” doesn’t mean we just skip along and go our merry way. We ask Holy Spirit for guidance, study scripture enough to recognize when something sounds off in a translation, etc., and obey what we learn. We pursue a relationship with God. That is what I mean by do the best we can. Personally I read from two or three translations comparing, and even talking to God as I read, sometimes asking “why did you use THAT word in the sentence?” I’m impressed you know Hebrew and Greek, I don’t. I also think it is miraculous that the Bible has been preserved till now in spite of many attempts to pts to eradicate it. Anyway I should stop now. Thank you for your insights…. Such a treat to share info and faith.
Nothing compares in beauty, clarity, and accuracy to the King James Translation.
You’re right on the first, but I question your judgement if you think the KJV is CLEAR. Half the time I’m having to look up the meaning of words that are just plain archaic or have changed meaning over the years. That seems like an unnecessary impediment to understanding for the sake of sounding pretty. If you want pretty, go read Shakespeare. The KJV also has an interesting list of inaccuracies that stem from the original chosen source texts. Nothing disastrous for basic reading, but to claim it is the most accurate is to have not done your research.

Specifically, Part 3. I think it is Part 3. It is called a Muse of Fire. It is about the King James Bible and how it was translated and why they translated it with a small vocabulary (about 8000 words) to be read aloud. It is considered the greatest masterpiece of the English language ever produced. It does have a few archaic words and expessions in it ,but hardly noticeable and certainly not an impediment to understanding the text.
It has impacted the English language and the lives of millions of people like no other translation.
It's really alarming to me how people keep needing another "accurate" Bible. Is there Biblical discernment lacking that much that people can't understand it? You won't be able to without a relationship with Him. So maybe it isn't in the translation but with the heart? I'm sticking with Old King James. I've read some of the others, NIV, and others. I don't even really care for New King James. Maybe we should stop trying to change scripture , and let Him change our hearts? It's taken years, but each year The Lord has enabled me to understand more and more, as He grows me.

Which means, they have to change the Materials used, by 10 %.
Since the Transliterations from the 1782 Elizabethan KJV, IE The NKJV, has over 100,000 changes, or omissions.

@@iaam8141what are y’all talking about? Most, if not all, modern English translations of the Bible are translated directly from original manuscripts, not the KJV. No translation to English is perfect because of language barriers. Only the original manuscripts are perfect, and then we need to have a thorough understanding of thousands of years of culture that haven’t existed in nearly 2 thousand years to fully comprehend everything. That’s why God gave us His spirit to give us understanding for us. Trust God and pray for discernment.
Before buying this Bible read "Things that are different are not the same"
@WmTyndale
For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ.
And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.
Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works. 2Corinthians 11

I am saddened to see that we, as Christians, are getting divisive over something that was intended to bring unity. I am no bible scholar, but neither were a lot of the disciples. God can use anyone He wants to accomplish His purposes, and He is sovereign over it all, including the making of new bible translations. Do not put your trust into your opinion on which translation is the best, because the heart is deceitful. It is wise to always consider at least 2 translations, especially when using a translation that is phrase by phrase, or even message by message (The Message) We are all in the same boat, we are all sinners, and it does not become us to demean one another's opinions or thoughts. Mr. Ham seems excited about this translation, and I rejoice to see people still committed to wanting to pursue a more accurate Bible translation. We all could benefit from the perseverance and determination of God's people to confidently stand upon His word as the ultimate truth. Let us put aside all envy, and slander, and hypocrisy, and stand together as God's children. As one commentator said in the comments, about Bible translations being pitted against each other, I have this to say: Then why do you pit yourself against other believers? If we cannot even love one another well in sharing opinions, how will we be able to stand against the enemy, if we cannot obey one of the most important commands given by our Saviour, Jesus Christ, that we love one another as ourselves. I love and care for you all, but I do hope we begin to consider that our opinions, are sometimes in need of prayerful consideration before they are said.
Jesus did not come to bring unity!
“For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law.” Mat 10:35
The BU$INE$$ of “retranslating” (modifying, changing, watering down, culturally adapting…) the Bible has brought more people into apostasy and immorality than any other thing!
For where do you think this objection comes from, and by the way, it is the most common objection to the Gospel:
“It’s been translated thousands of times, and we simply don’t know what it really says any more… like a big game of telephone.. how can we trust a Bible that we don't even have? The originals are gone and no one speaks those languages!”
The King James Bible, faithfully translated into English by the best translators in the greatest empire in the world under budget of a King-preserves the word of God!
There is no other faithful answer to this question.
Believing God can create the Heaven and the Earth, raise himself from the dead, but NOT preserve his word in the international language of BU$INE$$ is simply a faithless proposition!
The international language of BU$INE$$ is English BECAUSE OF the King James Bible!!!!
And take heed! We are in a time where the “time of the gentiles” is coming to an end-judgement will be poured out on a great Nation that has TURNED AWAY from the Bible!! Daniel 9-12!

@@craigime "retranslation" is put in quotes for other versions because a different base text was used, even though they are presented as not doing so! KJB also was not done for purposes of professional "scholarship", aka pick your own meaning, 'yea hath God said', like the new ones!
When the intro of the new "retranslations" claim lineage from the King James and Tyndale, this is a bold faced lie that is used to fraudulently legitimize them to would be users of the King James Bible. In fact they use a completely different base text, heavily relying on a few Greek manuscripts which show serious signs of anachronicity!
In fact there is no new version anywhere that uses the same original language text throughout. Even the New King James uses so-called "critical text" readings on virtually every page! (In the margins it says CT)
The history of preservatoon behind the Received Text and the Ben Chayim Tanakh knows no comparative equivalent, or even a close competitor. The fictuonal, theoretical "septuagint" is again only represented by primarily two manuscripts (Sinaiticus and Vaticanus) which contain srious anachronisms in both text and artifact!

@@redfaux74 you are absolutely correct. My point is that without the Holy Spirit to guide us into the truth of the Holy Bible, we cannot completely grasp its depth so in essence with so many translations out there, only the Spirit can make the Word clear. God richly bless you 🙏
@@marcisaacs9407 And I am agreeing with you, Marc. Just to be clear. My point with the donkey reference is God can even use a "bad/liberal/corrupt" version of the Bible because the Holy Spirit can still bring that to life. And I am not advocating for bad translations, just emphasising your point that it is the Holy Spirit, not solely text on a page. That is, the power of the Holy Spirit transcends the quality of the translation of the Bible, which I believe that is the point you are making.

I do have a question about the descendants of Shem. Did Arpachshad live 135 or 35 before he had a child. From verses 12-26 has a numbering issue with men being 100+, or it leaves out the 100 for the age of the men.
Would you mind looking in to that issue. The LES and the LSB has that issue. I do appreciate your putting back Matthew 17:21, unlike the ESV and others have removed.
It's in brackets which means it's not in the original text.

@@Go2mychanelplz the KJB was an update of king Henry the 3’s bible which was mostly translated from the Latin vulgate, which was based off the Greek not the original Hebrew. The KJB is responsible for most cults actually,

Thank you for sharing this. I love to study scriptures and I LOVE the idea of literal translations. Because just like you said, sometimes that literal translation has a significant impact that we may not see. Like the difference between the first day, one day and day one ... one day, does not necessarily mean the first day or day one. The distinction is very subtle but could have enormous consequences. Often as I do word studies, the original word adds complexities and or clarity that the translators did not necessarily pick up. It makes the scriptures come alive or in many cases adds such an understanding that transforms how I see that scripture.
The most recent example was the word sanctification. This is a word we often gloss over because it is not a common word in English language so we chalk it up to a theological term than means 'set apart' or 'made holy' but again, just shallow theological term that have some impact, but a good word study reveals some nuances that for me launched me into a who new understanding of Sanctification.
The generic meaning of sanctification "the state of proper functioning" To sanctify someone or something is to set that person or thing apart for the use intended by its designer.
So when you are Sanctified ... you are being restored to the state of proper functioning and being set apart for use as your designer, God, intended.
For me, that is so much deeper, richer and life giving that just 'set apart' or 'made Holy' though both of those are good and definitely add value ... but there is something so beautiful about seeing Holy as the state of proper functioning as God originally designed me.
Nothing more beautiful than someone being completely set apart and in a state of functioning properly as God designed them to. Unhindered and unfettered.
So thanks for taking the time and effort to dig down and search out the truest translation of God's word. Looking forward to getting my hands on a copy

Do you understand what a textual variant is first?
@@Spartan322 what sources of text did the first Christians use and from whom did they receive it ?
@@ronaldrogers4004 The first Christians used the Greek Septuagint and the many copies of that, they didn't even have a New Testament originally, it wasn't even written yet, John and Revelation wasn't even written until around 70AD and most Christians didn't know of it until the late second century in the best of cases, many Christians didn't have most of the New Testament in the second century and the few that had most of what they knew was only 81% of what Athanasius had in the 4th century, and the 2nd century Christians didn't yet include John or Revelation back then, and there were a few other epistles not yet recognized as such either. By the mid 3rd century everything we had was known and recorded only in Koine Greek, Jerome then also translated the Hebrew that he had into the Latin Vulgate, which was not the New Testament, Jerome used the Koine Greek for that because that's the language God used for transmission. As a result we have three original languages God used for manuscripts of Scripture by the 3rd century, the primary one being Koine Greek (which is the New Testament was originally written in and which alluded to the Septuagint Old Testament) with Hebrew being only found for the Old Testament (we still do not have the original Hebrew, only the later Masoretic texts made by the 6th century Jews) and Latin being a translation medium from the Greek and Hebrew. But thing is that the King James had none of these manuscripts, they had a copy of the Latin Vulgate, but they lacked the earlier texts of Greek manuscripts and and most of the texts they could've used for translation for a copy of the Latin, these manuscripts have additions and omissions not found in the earlier manuscript copies that the Christian made and used, nothing that changes doctrine, but there were three accounts added to the New Testament not found in the historical Scripture at all, the most prominent being John 7:53-John 8:11, the adulteress woman and "he without sin cast the first stone", that is not found anywhere in Scripture of the original texts and is only found in some manuscripts after the 10th century, and its not even always consistently in that place in John, sometimes it ended up in Luke or other places in John.
We have since discovered things like the Dead Sea Scrolls and other New Testament manuscripts from the Koine Greek even, as a result we can further validate historically our records compared to the King James, which is what the translators of the King James wanted but couldn't have at the time, they even state this in regards to their original publication. The King James did not use these older historical manuscripts because they did not have it at the time, as a result a new translation has to minimally be made, but because of all the manuscripts we do have and the function of both Koine Greek and Ancient Hebrew, we can make many distinct translations of words and still completely correctly transmit the text. But of the preserved text, no regular person would be capable to read it, the King James is not special, its not an inspired word and it did not come from an Apostle, you don't have the capacity to read the language the Apostles wrote and we don't have any of the original manuscripts written by the Apostles anyway.

For anyone who doesn't know what Spartan322 "textual variant" means, this is a quote from Wikipedia says, "Textual variant in manuscripts arise when a copyist makes *deliberate* or *inadvertent alterations* to a text that is being reproduced." In the case of the various "translations" out there, it is deliberate on the part of many of these authors, and inadvertently due to misunderstanding what the Hebrew or Greek is saying. These authors were *not* inspired by God of the Cosmos and this world, but rather the god of this world, to create another "version" that is different than what the KJV Bible says.

It's more like one day God created X and then a second day God created X. Im not sure how to even ask the question because I'm confused

This only matters if one believes the days come in no particular order. If "one day" is the first day, which is clear from the context, then this particular distinction is meaningless.
You don't like the evening and the morning where the first day. Why not ? The reason it says that in Genesis is to show that it was a literal 24hr day. I'll stick with the King James. Apart from all that if the original texts exist why can't it just be translated into English without someone coming along and translating differently. All these versions are just money makers.
@@richardbrown9760 Oh come on. The King James was not the first translation into English, no good reason for it to be the last. I'm sure good traditional Tyndale readers got all grumpy about the new-fangled King James when it came out too.

The King Jane version was accurately written, but because of the printing press from the 1500s was used and you had to handle each letter. Some spelling had error. Also when they wrote the king James Bible they wrote with a Gothic style writing, which did not read well for the average person that was ignorant of the style of writing, it took about 70 years to correct all the spelling and then write it in writing that every English reading person could read it
Did they use the pure receive text for their translation? I doubt it.
I would like to know how did they translated the word phobeo in Ephisians 5:33
When you make changes to any Bible translations, you have to change it at least 10% to be able to get it to be put back on the market to be sold as a Bible how much did you change this Bible from God‘s original word to be able to be published?
Do you mean copyright instead of published? I don't know, but thought it had to have a copyright in order to make a profit. Not sure what the requirements are for that. Just asking, thanks.
Just changing God to Yahweh and Dulos to Slave gets you to 10%. We’ve been watering down the Bible for too long. Glad to see someone get back to what the words mean.
@WmTyndale
For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ.
And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.
Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works. 2Corinthians 11

It sounds like the intention is to make it more accurate to original texts by consistency of translation. If 10% is required, which I doubt for a Bible translation, since most stray from accuracy to "clarify" for the masses, then they probably hit that.
This conversation is just announcing that Ken Ham is including it in his ministries and letting people know why.
@@Bigfoottehchipmunk In the US, if a Bible has a copyright, it cannot be published by anyone else. The KJV does not have a US copyright. It is also in public domain. To obtain a copyright, the material has to vary from other similar publications. It is at least 10%, if memory serves. It doesn't matter if it's a cookbook on desserts or a Bible with a copyright, the same rules apply. Only NEW writings by the actual author or publications placed into the public domain are free from copyright regulations.
For example: To meet copyright requirements, IMO, is one of the why the HCSB changed servants into slaves in so many places in the Bible. The consequence is that the freedom to choose was limited. Servants have freedoms that salves do not have. There are countless examples of unnecessary changes to meet the percent of change target. Does it actually make a difference *in context* when a $100 (modern value) payment was made in pennies or denarius?
BTW, the originals texts do not exist. The Bible records the destruction of some of them.
Legacy Standard Bible is translated from the NASB, a Roman Catholic Bible that was based on Codex Vaticanus and originally from the Alexandrian Text as opposed to a Codex Sinaiticus. The translators for the Codex Vaticanus were not obviously Christians and were likely Jewish scholars in the Hellenistic period.
what are you saying??? that the NASB is translated from a roman catholic bible and the legacy bible is too? what??
@@sunnywayPS34 NASB is Codex Vaticanus, there are resemblance to Codex Sinaiticus but not part of Majority Text of Greek Byzantine that was used by common early Christians.
@@sunnywayPS34no he is not correct on this. Ignore him. Avoid him
Obviously you weren’t aware that Erasmus who compiled the Textus Receptus which was the Greek text consulted by the KJV translators was a Catholic. Further, the base text for the KJV was the Bishops Bible which was a translation of the Latin Vulgate. Your idol the King James Bible is rooted in Catholicism.
@@Captain-rg8mvI believe the Catholics got it right.
Interesting interview.
I compared de LSB-translation of 2 Tim. 3:16-17 with the excellent Dutch Telos-translation of the New Testament and found this passage in the LSB more literally translated.
THIS is what I've been hoping for! I have learned in the last few years that the various translations still "hide" things from us and are the basis for some pretty peculiar ideas about God and how we are supposed to live. Putting an accurate translation faithful to original text is literally a Godsend...
Excuse me, but there is no original text anywhere existing on earth to compare it with. We have no originals.
Would buy the Brooklyn bridge?
Do you realize, there is no original text to compare with? Originals exist nowhere on earth. How can you make a translation that is closest to a text that exists nowhere on the face of the whole earth?
Oh I thought the KJV 1611 was the Word like fine silver refined seven times in a furnace of Earth....
That’s what you get for thinking.
What? the KJV that substituted YAHWEH, the Name above all names almost 6,800 times?
And I'm assuming you call the Messiah "Iesus" then?
@@Captain-rg8mv
Psalm 12:6-7 KJV
6 The words of the Lord are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times.
7 Thou shalt keep them, O Lord, thou shalt preserve them from this generation for ever.
It is.
Each new translation echoes Satan.
The Fall
Gen 3:1 Now the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said,
No, that was actually written in Hebrew. It was written about 1,600 years before the KJV translation was ever made. The KJV is a good translation in a line of good English translations. We no longer use Elizabethan English, we have standardized spelling, and we use the letter “J” in modern English. In 1611 they did not. The KJV, including the modern revision that KJV people use and believe it’s the 1611 (it’s not) contains over 300 dead English words, and a large number of words whose meanings have changed. I’ve actually never personally met a KJV Onlyist who uses a 1611 KJV.
Legacy Standard Bible teaches works salvation. Example: John 3:36
He who believes in the Son has eternal life; but he who does not "obey" the Son will not see life, but the wrath of God abides on him.
This is a word for word translation because obey is not there, it was added to cast doubts on salvation by faith alone.
sounds like calvinism since john mcarther doesn't believe Jesus knocks on everyone's door. which gives an entirely different meaning that Christians who continue to sin will be chastised. In other words, “disobey” means to “reject” Christ (as the NIV and NET translate John 3:36). In fact, this term (apeitho) is translated as “disbelieve” by the NASB in Acts 14:2. Elsewhere, this term is used synonymously with “unbelief” or “disbelieving” (For instance, see this in Heb. 3:18-19; 1 Pet. 2:7-8).
At some point I'll look at the Greek, but the NASB has "obey" as well. I wouldn't get too "worked" up over it, however. "begone you workers of inequity, I never knew you". "Why do you call me, 'Lord, Lord,' and do not do what I say? ". "If you confess with your mouth Jesus is Lord and believe in our heart that God raised him from the dead you will be saved". The bible is pretty clear you can't continue in open sin, but I'm not going to go into a sermon.
@@palmerther Yup! The hang up over the word "obey" is just puerile.
I wonder what they would say about 2 Thessalonians 1:7-9 King James Version
7 And to you who are troubled rest with us, when the Lord Jesus shall be revealed from heaven with his mighty angels,
8 In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and *that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ:*
9 Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power;
@@kevinrtres - Actually, obey, faith, belief, perseverance, are all cousin words. You cannot have faith without obeying. Corrupt churches teach a version of faith that is just nonsense.
You cannot say Jesus is your Lord and Savior if you are continuing in sin. But today, boy means girl or goldfish if that's what you want. Truth means nothing today. I guarantee you.... Jesus is not pleased with 99% of churches today. Their false pastors and teachers don't teach 10% of God's Word. Their is no heart in them. They are fake.
If you BELIEVE Jesus said "Stop watching porn" then you would obey. You might struggle but eventually, thru the Word and Spirit you would overcome. You would be heartbroken and have great tears but you would finally find His strength and see evil as what it is. Evil is hated by God. It does not deserve a place in our hearts.
Amos 3:3 You cannot be a follower of Jesus and walk in sin. You can trip and fall, repent, get up and continue following many times. But you cannot stay in your sin and say you are following Jesus. Luke 9:23
NA-28 says ὁ πιστεύων εἰς τὸν υἱὸν ἔχει ζωὴν αἰώνιον· ὁ δὲ ἀπειθῶν τῷ υἱῷ οὐκ ὄψεται ζωήν, ἀλλ’ ἡ ὀργὴ τοῦ θεοῦ μένει ἐπ’ αὐτόν. The participle ἀπειθῶν means "disobeying." See BDAG.
Does the Calvanist bent of Dr. MacArthur influence the translation?
the KJV has a "Calvanist" bend to it too 🤣🤣
no, the original language has been accuratly and faithfully translated in the LSB. its a good translation.
How many translations are too many? If the research is there and the scholars cards are checked I think we should have more. I remember when the NASB 77 came out, I purchased the hard cover and used it along with the King Jimmy and Living Bible with great appreciation
We have the best translation It's called the King James version, anything new and changed is dead already... And John MacArthur giving his okay is a dead giveaway that it's in huge error
Amen, sister. I am guessing from your comment that you are aware that Calvinism is a doctrine of demons - glad to see fellow laborers with eyes to see. God bless you and stay strong in the faith.
no its not the best
Complete Jewish Bible is translated directly from original languages to 1970's English.
@@user-kv2pt4lu9y Read Gail Riplinger's book "New Age Bible".
Lol, Satanic,Titus says after Sodom and Egypt where THEIR lord was crucified,KJV says where OUR lord was crucified,see the difference.
FYI, I just read some parts of this translation and it’s nearly identical to all the other main ones. Hence no main reason for its existence. Also it says “one day” (v. 5) and then it literally says “a second day,” third day, fourth day, fifth day, sixth day. Their entire argument of saying it can’t possibly be long-but-finite periods of time because it only lists the actual number instead of counting first, second, third, etc. is entirely moot. It only gives a one on the first day and then it counts the rest anyways even in their translation! Plus it still ends on the sixth day without showing the seventh day in the sequence which is one of the main arguments against this mandatory 24-hour-only paradigm. If God wanted to force us to believe in 7 literal days why would He exclude it and then say elsewhere in Scripture “they will never enter My rest?” Also, if you’re trying to avoid theological bias you certainly don’t want a translation that has every single person on the team not only a single denomination but even working for a single seminary and having signed a rigid doctrinal statement. That isn’t even wise. There is wisdom and safety in a multitude of counselors!
For starters, God did not inspire this author to create a new or updated version of the NASV. It came from a different spirit altogether. Even in the Hebrew scriptures, it says there was a seven day (Yom) week designating a literal day, with the Sabbath/Shabbat closing the end of all that God made the previous six days. God does not force His ways upon anyone; everything is a choice. He merely says, "If ye love Me, keep My commandments." That's been His challenge from the start. When we obey out of love, He will protect us against the evil what surrounds us moment by moment.
I truly am very grateful for godly man who invest time to study to bring a Bible understanding for all "Levels" of reading comprehension. When many tried to upgrade, by downgrading scriptures by removing very important scriptures from God Himself, I look forward to placing in my possession toreadand study God's words.
Whooohooo! I just bought this bible!!!... M just waiting it to be delivered to me. : )
NOTHING is missing from the King James Bible. It IS God's preserved WORD. Much research has been done showing the comparisons of modern versions vs the King James Bible and they all not only are based on the Alexandrian (corrupt) text or verses have been altered or omitted. "Truth is Christ" channel (Brandon Peterson) has discovered hundreds of patterns and numbers that are only found in the KJB but none of the others! I already knew the truth but was blown away by what the Lord revealed w this. May you all be blessed as well. Titus 2:13
Yes I agree. Gail Riplinger has studied the Different translations for years and she puts the King James top. Also the book of Isaiah in the dead sea scrolls is word for word the King James Bible.
@@richardbrown9760 Wow, I began my research with Gail R's expose's in the late 90's. She was truly anointed for that work and I am grateful that God raised her up. Yes, the Dead Sea Scrolls have fairly recently been identified as being Word for Word to the book of Isaiah!! Isn't that awesome? Blessings...
The ESV is God's preserved word
@@craigime No it is NOT. It is still a "version" with a copyright that insures the publishers make a profit off of God's Word.
@@GailS.7777 did you not know that the KJV was copyrighted too?
Thanks for sharing
Sterling translation! A major breakthrough in biblical study! I really appreciate the translators correctly stating "Yahweh" instead of LORD in the OT!
What manuscripts did you use, please? Is 1st John 5:7 included? Sincerely
1 John 5:7 is not scripture, so no
@@craigimeNONSENSE - there are 9 Greek manuscripts which have 1 John 5v7 and many old Latin manuscripts as well as other ancient translations. Your corrupt Vaticanus and Sinaiticus contradict each other 3000 times in the Gospels alone and agree with NO other Greek manuscript in the world.
@@MrWrath777 which 9 Greek manuscripts have it?
KJV has all of it, the trinity
1 John 5:7 KJV
[7] For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.
This is another corrupt bibles from Satan.
