This wonderfully clear, simple translation will make Bible study slightly less difficult for all of us- Nick Pollard, Director of Solent Christian TrustNew Light aims to recapture the 'easy to read' style of the original Bible writers. It reads very well aloud and has a directness that faces, even confronts, the reader with the text. - Terence Copley, Professor of Religious Education,The great strength of the New Light Bible is the ability to combine a scholarly translation with a modern and accessible style . . . An ideal translation to use with young people and adults alike. - John Logan, BFSS National RE Centre, Brunel Univer
More than forty-two people were involved in the detailed process of producing the New Light Bible. These included educationalists, stylists, simplifiers and anglicisers. Together, they represent a wide spectrum of Christian denominations from around the world and the finest biblical scholarship available today, many of whom also worked on the NIV. One of their key aims was to ensure a balance between fidelity to the original biblical texts and to the accessibility of the receptor language (ie English).
