Back to Episodes"Sacred Writings: Preserved or Reconstructed? The Nature of the Greek New Testament" by Adam Boyd
Description
Strength to Strength welcomed Adam Boyd to explore the different manuscript families of the Greek New Testament and to present the case for why the text preserved in the vast majorities of manuscripts is to be preferred.
It is apparent that something is amiss. In Matthew 6:13 the King James Version concludes the Lord’s prayer with the words, “For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.” However, most modern English translations like the ESV and NIV exclude these words from the Lord’s prayer. Why do some translations include these words while others do not?
Which is right, and why does it matter? Join Adam as he addresses these and other related questions about the text of the Greek New Testament.
An interactive question-and-answer period will follow.
