Publisher's Synopsis
KJ3 LITERAL TRANSLATION BIBLE This is the translation that appears in the side margins of Jay P. Green, Sr.'s best-selling translation, The Interlinear Hebrew-Greek-English Bible. This is the fourth edition of this most accurate of all Bible versions. Due to additional intense study, and the suggestions of others, we feel confident that this version has now been perfected. Now You Can Know What God Said, Not Just What Men Say He Said. The Bible you have been reading may say that The word of God is . . . sharper than a two-edged sword (Heb. 4:12), but in myriads of verses it has been dulled by mistranslation, or lost through non-translation of the words God actually wrote through the Scripture writers as they were "borne along by the Holy Spirit" (2 Peter 1:21). Why let all these expressive words of God be hidden away from you any longer? Be enriched by knowing exactly what God said in every verse of the Holy Scriptures. Put not your trust in princes, noblemen, or so-called intelligentsia, but trust only and fully in the powerful, life-giving words as they were given to the apostles and prophets to write, as they were "borne along by the Holy Spirit" No one can transmit a message without using words. Why not use the very words written by the original Author in the English as close as it can get to them? For God calls the Scriptures "My Word" (see Isaiah 51:16). And every one of them is precious, wisely selected by God to satisfy your soul, and to direct your steps. This is what the King James Version was meant to be, an exact word-for-word translation of the Hebrew and Greek texts. This title indicates that this new Bible is an exact literal, word-for-word translation of the Masoretic Hebrew Text and the Greek Received Text (Textus Receptus), the main texts used by the Authorized/King James Version translators. Certainly you will want to know all the truths that God has written in the original Hebrew and Greek languages, for it is truth that has the power to set you free: ''And you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free'' (John 8:32) A true Bible must contain the words of God, all of His words, and no words added from the minds of men (such as paraphrases, synonyms, mistranslations, biases, interpretations, etc.) Verse-paragraph format, 1,196 pages
