Comments on: Why Your Bible Sucks http://greyparty.net/2007/07/26/why-your-bible-sucks/ I never wrote you great poems, I just meant them ~ Gavin Castleton Tue, 07 Feb 2012 07:06:40 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.0.5 by: MEH http://greyparty.net/2007/07/26/why-your-bible-sucks/#comment-174 Sun, 09 Sep 2007 03:44:53 +0000 http://greyparty.net/2007/07/26/why-your-bible-sucks/#comment-174 I think NAS didn't want Mary to be a Virgin . . . or something. I'm still rocking the KJV, NRSV, ESV (to keep Gary happy) and the good old Greek. I think NAS didn’t want Mary to be a Virgin . . . or something.

Take the time to sit with this translation, it's notes/commentary, and your personal Bible translation/version of choice. Maybe a pen and some post-it notes. READ THE INTRODUCTION IN IT'S ENTIRETY! Failure to do so means you will loose the proper perspective on the text. This also reminds me of my I HATE The Message "bible:" shoot me in the face.
