Here's my question: if God separated people by language at Babel, and then gave the gift of tongues (different languages) so that the disciples could preach at Pentecost to everyone in their own language, and then sent out the apostles with the mandate to take the gospel to the ends of the earth, why would God then decide in 1611 that only English was appropriate and that it could no longer be heard in any other language? Sounds more like Islam than Christianity.

Have enjoyed your articles and commentaries over the years. Always fair, reasonable, scholarly, and judicious and never overbearing or extreme. I use NKJV primarily in my Logos studies and will probably continue to do so. Switch to the Compare Versions tool when I feel it necessary. Thanks again for helping to clarify issues on this seemingly endless controversial topic.

Having watched a lot of your stuff recently, I greatly appreciate your charity. You contend for an important issue, yet remain peaceable in the face of I'm certain many frustrations.
I also thoroughly enjoy your humor! Often dry, subtle, it just gets me so often!
I've always had an NKJV, and have regularly checked the notes included. When I started comparing other translations, I did so using Blue Letter Bible, so the text notes were always available. Then I heard about the NET with it's own translation explanations, and I started using that at times. It's only in a few of your recent videos that I learned most other translations don't have those notes! Here I am with an embarrassment of riches and did not even realize!
Thanks for what you do! "Almost you persuade me to become a greek scholar."

Strictly speaking im not King James Only; Im King James Priority. I utilise other versions but the KJV has final say. On a side note, im a big fan of the distinctions between second person singular and plural. It's so very important, especially for actual study, but even before that. The KJV/21 are the only ones i know of that do that. 👍 peace. 🙏

when i study i use the ESV study bible the LSB and the TLV and occasionally the 1977 NASB or the KJV ( because my 15 year old son has loved the KJV since he was 12 or 13 and his favorite bible is his 1611 lol) but using multiple translations seriously helps me too understand and hold on to what scripture says. the ESV is my main bible but its a blessing to have different translations and it has only benefited me as when i tried reading the kjv when i first came to Christ , it was really hard for me and i didn't hold on to what i had read

I grew up and still attend the Church of the Nazarene. For the longest time the KJV and NKJV were all I had around me. When I joined the teen group we used the NIV and or ESV (depending on what you liked). We loved using different translations during study because it got us to think more rather than just read. We briefly left the church and attended a small non-denominational church and it was all KJV. I even got a KJV Bible for graduation. I remember attending one of my first men’s Bible studies around the age of 17 and brought my NKJV with me and got some rather questionable looks or if I was asked to read scripture I was never met with the same energy and enthusiasm as someone who sat next to me and read from the KJV. Your videos have been something I’ve been looking for because if my desire to understand and appreciate translations and get others to know the importance of them. Thankfully today I attend my home Nazarene church and we all use a variety of Bibles. I personally use my RSV for study and KJV for when the pastor preaches. Great videos!
