Customer Reviews

Concise, scholarly. Allows one to make his/her own decision

Robert Thomas strikes me as a true scholar.There is no sarcasm or condescending tone, just his honest yet learned opinion of the subject.(He favours the Alexandrian Text as opposed to the Textus Receptus, but readers usually have their minds made up on this beforehand anyway, and Thomas' opinion will not sway them one way or the other).Note this is not a large book,only about 200 pages. I couldn't believe there were no reviews of this book ,as it is well worth buying. I really like his summary reviews of many translations individualy.I also recommend "Differences Between Bible Translations" by Gary, Zeolla, as well as "One Bible Only?" by Beacham and Bauder.
