  1. Thanks, everybody. I located a Cokesbury store and picked up a copy of the NRSV. The Oxford was there but a little out of my price range right here at house payment time of the month. I'll probably pick that up later. I had lost my old New King James somehow, and I took the opportunity to ask around instead of simply replacing it. Y'all have been a great help. This website is really terrific. Kevin
  2. Thanks for both of your replies. Sophia, From your response and other reading, I think I will probably give the NRSV a try. Can you suggest a publisher that is not affiliated with fundamentalism? I am wary of Zondervan, but they comprise the majority of bibles on the shelves of all of my local bookstores. In addition to finding a good translation, I would prefer to spend my money with a progressive publisher. Thanks again for your advice. Ciao, Kevin
  3. I am a progressive Christian seeking some advice on bible translation choices. Particularly, I am seeking some guidance in selecting a study bible that is the most accurate translation with the least amount of doctrinal influence in its translation. I have read that the King James Version, while beautiful and lyrical, is tainted by doctrinal influences on which modern Christian Fundamentalism is founded. Please provide any insight. Thanks, Kevin
