Bücher der Reihe Translating

The Study of translating is one of the most important in modern times and probably one of the most neglected. All Christians will profit from this book. You will be inspired, challenged and enlightened by this must-read book. A careful reading of this book will assist translators around the world to come to a knowledge of what God expects from those handling His Words "to make them known." Man cannot and should not assume that he can establish the "rules' for how to "make them known," because God has " magnified [His] word above all [His] name" (Psalm 138:2f),and the following verse indicates how high He has exalted His name. This book shows the "why" and the "how" to carry over God's Words into the languages of the world, according to God's standards, not man's. This book is not just for translators. It is for all Christians who love the Word of God. Textual scholars have taught us that we still do not yet fully know what the original Scriptures said. They tell us all our Bibles have places that are uncertain and may have errors. But, God has inspired and preserved all His Words. We can be fully confident that every word of God is available to us. This book can build confidence in the Bible. It will lift your view of God's Word and encourage your faith. Dr. Combs' qualifications to author this book are evident by his extensive research and teaching of translation. He has spent many years consulting with translators, studying and gleaning from the scriptures. He has modeled the importance of using Biblical principles to produce a faithful, accurate and true translation of God's Word. Writing about this vital topic is the result of labor that has been years in the making. You will be inspired, challenged and enlightened by this must-read book.
