- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I can not imagine a better explanation of the various English translations. There are a few Old and New Testaments available not covered in this book. They are not real translations, but mere defenses for obscure religious groups (Jehovah's Witnesses "New World Translation," and Witness Lee's "Recovery Version of the New Testament"). --Dana Roberts, M.A., M.T.S.
