There was a rather POV and misleading unsourced statement in the article about the text used for the TEV translation. I removed it. If anyone wants to insert something about the text behind the TEV, they used BH3 and UBS3, with a couple of other sources for the deuterocanon ([http://www.bible-researcher.com/tev.html source]).--[[User:VAcharon|VAcharon]] 02:06, 23 May 2007 (UTC) |

Re: My article concerns
I have concerns about two sentences in this artcle:
The GNT has been adopted as the standard for many Protestant churches.
I don't think I've heard anyone refer to the TEV as "A Standard" or "The Standard" Protestant Bible. There are people who hate the TEV with a purple passion. Just ask David Cloud.
Bottom line: The RSV was a standard. The NIV is a standard. The TEV is not.
...and the text lacks the extensive footnotes found in many other translations.
False. I have the 1976 edition of the TEV, and there are footnotes on almost every page.

Footnotes were correct
The line on footnotes was correct. I compared the 1976 GNT and the NRSV and there was a difference.

Declaration of Interest
In the past, I have donated to the American Bible Society (ABS). My donation in no way reflects any bias for or against the ABS or it's activities.

Text Basis
There was a rather POV and misleading unsourced statement in the article about the text used for the TEV translation. I removed it. If anyone wants to insert something about the text behind the TEV, they used BH3 and UBS3, with a couple of other sources for the deuterocanon (source).--VAcharon 02:06, 23 May 2007 (UTC)
