In this next vide series, I'll be talking to Michael Johnson who is the senior editor of the World English Bible, or the WEB. The WEB is a relatively new Bible translation which uses the Byzantine Text otherwise known as the Majority text as it's basis for the New Testament instead of the Critical Text, which is very close to the Textus Receptus or the Received Text (TR). Copyright was also a big player in the decision to create the World English Bible. Join us in this first part as we talk about the World English Bible.
