I like this, as you put it "but I'm also in a position to work with them rather than be subject to them." Indeed!Bobby Growhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06831009618873548948noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2934219918554432299.post-11750999768215736392012-05-25T10:33:59.957-07:002012-05-25T10:33:59.957-07:00Bobby, I'm a NKJV man, too.

I was raised on the KJV and I'm familiar with its cadences, etc. Having been trained in Greek and Hebrew I, too, am aware of the textual issues but I'm also in a position to work with them rather than be subject to them.

I sympathize with your reservations about the NRSV. I really respect the late Bruce Metzger who oversaw the translation process of the NRSV - he's kind of like my "Torrance." ;) I like a lot of the daring and possibly more accurate renderings of the NRSV, but almost always feel let down when it comes to the issue of gender. It's then that I fall back to the RSV or NASB. BTW, I'm still keeping little William and his family in my prayers.
