This is what the King James Version was meant to be! This title indicates that this new Bible is a literal, word-for-word translation of the Masoretic Hebrew Text and the Greek Received Text (Textus Receptus), the main texts used by the Authorised/King James Version translators. Jay Green does a commendable job in giving us literal readings even on passages that seem to contradict established Christian theology. It uses modern English, so don’t be repulsed by the “KJ3″ title, but be forewarned that the grammar is distinctively Greek, and the word order makes it troublesome for native English speakers to read! This publication uses large, clear type & there are also many helpful scripture references included by Jay when the Apostle Paul or others quote the Old Testament.
All in all this is a wonderful literal translation… but, no matter how good this or any translation is, nothing will replace the transformation done by Jesus Christ when He appears as God’s Literal Word.
