Pastor Steve Weaver wrote an excellent short series of three articles on the subject of Bible translations. I thought he covered a great deal of ground in a concise manner. I recommend this series to anyone who wants a quick but informed overview of this very important subject.
Pastor Steve’s interactions with the King James Only naysayers in the comments section (after each article) are also very worthwhile. Well done Steve.
