Description

1984 Revised edition. Hardcover has some shelf wear at edges. The pages are clean and in good condition. The binding is secure.

This 1984 revised edition of the New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures is a significant work in the history of Bible translations. Published by the Watchtower Bible and Tract Society, the translation was produced by the Jehovah’s Witnesses, a Christian restorationist movement known for their door-to-door evangelism and rejection of traditional Christian doctrines such as the Trinity. The New World Translation aimed to provide a modern English translation that adhered closely to the beliefs and interpretations of the Witnesses. While controversial among mainstream Christian denominations, the translation has been praised by some scholars for its efforts to render the original Hebrew and Greek texts accurately. This copy, despite some shelf wear, remains in acceptable condition, with clean pages and a secure binding, making it a valuable addition to any collection of significant Bible translations or a window into the beliefs and practices of one of the world’s most well-known religious movements.
