I genuinely think that the NASB 2020 is very underrated. It basically takes the strengths from most mainstream translations and mitigates the weaknesses. Accurate and literal (similar to the NASB 95 & LSB), but not sacrificing readability. Readable and accessible (similar to the NIV and CSB), but not sacrificing accuracy and literalness. Poetic and traditional (similar to the KJV and ESV), but again not sacrificing readability. I really think the NASB 2020 is a fantastic translation that deserves more recognition.

I have been carrying a Cambridge NASB New Testament pocket edition in my suit coat for work for 35 years and two bindings. I don’t see any need to change. I don’t see anything wrong with the changes. But sometimes I think we are obsessed with change really for the sake of it, I have said for a half century that the best Bible translation is the one that you will read daily and live by. Thank you so much for the video!

Hello from America! I appreciate your channel very much. I like your steady impassionate presentation of factual information. Re: the NASB, I really like a formal equivalence translation, and I think the NASB balances that translation philosophy with readability. While I think the LSB is probably a bit more literal, it seems the NASB is a bit more readable. I have no problem with gender accuracy as long as the goal is accuracy and not gender inclusiveness per se. Between the 1995 & 2020, I give the edge to the 2020 primarily because I think it got the more precise nuances of the Hebrew & Aramaic in the book of Daniel. Though they're both good, that's why I prefer the NASB 2020. It's now the one I teach & preach from. Keep up your good work! Enjoy your channel!

The Deceit of Religious Belief The only people who listen to this nonsense have no standards to exclude nonsense. And we are still dealing with this "think not I come with peace" nonsense. The religious are ludicrous, avoided like the old women with too many cats. Freud wrote the antidote to Christianity is literacy. Nothing fails like prayers in a children's hospital. Who sends their children to prophet trade-school? If there were a god, then would there be any demand for scripture interpretations by various podium-jockeys using fantasyland vocabulary? These are the religious, the wolves in sheep's clothing. Even Jesus says faith is worthless or you could order mountains to move about. The scam works with faith & prayers, suggesting we all should travel with one foot in their fantasyland. Theologians acquire grand titles without certification from a deity, & project certainty using fantasyland vocabulary in an academic setting to compensate for lack of reason. We really should address the social acceptance of large numbers of people speaking a fantasyland vocabulary & openly indulging in the deceit of religious belief as a tool of fascism. It was secular law & order ending the inquisitions & witch-killings. The Christians slapped their books on the Old Testament, & the Mormons glued theirs on to them both, thus proving Christians lack quality-control. As if God does not have a perfect record of doing nothing, as if we had no reason for the saying: God helps those helping themselves.

I recently wanted a wide margin Bible and checked out one that lockman has in 2020 and really like the quality of the materials and the price was right l, so I bought it. I’ve been a long user of the 95, but as the father of a little girl I like seeing sisters in the text and she likes it too. I have a lot of respect for Lockman and in addition to them still producing 95, they still own the Lsb, as well. I watched an interview of a gentleman there and he pointed out that they wanted a translation that was more accurate in the sense that certain words are meant for men and women, but that they don’t have a philosophy of gender inclusivity like some translations do. That may be a fine line but I think it’s a worthwhile distinction.

@@JoeSteele-mg6uo I like to mix it up with my Bible readings, delving into the NASB 1995 and 2020 editions, alongside the King James and New King James versions, among others. At the end of the day, I think it’s best to read from whatever translation resonates most with you. I suppose you could call me old-school-I’m already well aware that certain scriptures are addressing sexual immorality, so I don’t necessarily need the extra specificity. However, for someone new in the faith, having that clarity could be crucial for a deeper understanding. After all, as Paul says in 1 Corinthians 14:19, “I would rather speak five words with my understanding, that I may instruct others also, than ten thousand words in a tongue.” The important thing is that the Word is clear, whether it’s in Old English or modern vernacular.

Thank you for the excellent review. Two years ago, I read the NASB95 from Genesis 1 right through Revelation 22 using a Cambridge Clarion Bible and found it a most enjoyable read. I just acquired a Humble Lamb NASB2020 HIStory edition which I intend to also read cover to cover. I expect to be equally blessed in my reading. Thanks for pointing out some of the rather minor (in my humble opinion) differences between the two versions.

@@benhuremmanuel Actually, I haven't read the NASB2020 just yet, as I decided to first do a complete read through of the NKJV. The NKJV has been my "go to" translation for many years, but I have never read it from Genesis to Revelation. I am now in Acts and it has been a wonderful read. I expect to be done with the NKJV about the beginning of summer. (I'm in no hurry.) In the meantime, however, I have been comparing the CSB with the NASB2020 and they are remarkably similar! So now I'm conflicted on which translation I should read next. Any suggestions?

You know I've been reading both of them simultaneously. I read the CSB first and then I'll read the same chapter in the 95/20 20. I read somewhere I believe it was the lockman foundation where is less than a 6% difference. I'm fine with either one of them I think they did a good job. Sometimes a word for word translation isn't the best way to go sometimes a thought for thought translation isn't the best way to go. I think we need to show each other a little more grace when it comes to things of this nature. The important thing is that we all love God's word.

I use both the 1995 and 2020 versions, and both are terrific. My one complaint, though, is that Lockman employs grammatical corrections in both texts when the original text, as it appears in the Interlinear Bible translation appears to stick to God’s actual wording. Case in point would be what God called the “expanse” in Genesis 1:8. The Interlinear Bible tells us God called the expanse heavens (plural), but both the 1995 and 2020 say that God called the expanse heaven (singular). While the 1995 and 2020 versions are “grammatically” correct (expanse and heaven both being singular), they pervert the whole context of the surrounding verses (Genesis 1:9, 14, 15 & 17) as well as other references in the Bible, e.g., Hebrews 4:14. I find this to be a weakness in the Lockman approach.

Weird that they changed man to person and then kept all of the pronouns masculine. Seems weird to say, “or what person will give His son a ….” And it continues through the chapter. If I’m to believe that “person” needs to be gender non specific but then all the pronouns are masculine, was the original text truly gender specific? 🤔

The King James shows prejudice against women of the 1611s who were not allowed an education or jobs unless it was sexual payments. The original Greek has words that salvation is offered to men and women! Women can only be saved because of childbirth - what about childless women? I'd prefer to read the scriptures as originally intended instead of the eyes of medieval culture. Yes, I was taught to read between the lines, so that it meant women too. I prefer the translations that show it in text. I like the NRSVue but realize it still has flaws in it. Prove me a translation without bias of the translators nor flaws. The NRSVue proves women could be Deaconesses, and speak in Church. St. Paul was not a "woman hater" after all, and why did the KJV translators change the name of a woman Deaconess to a made-up male name? I hate to be lied to!

Man… I’m not on either side as I don’t claim to know everything but you folks get so cuaght up in fighting over your opinions and debating which one of you knows more or is more accurate that you forget about what the actual purpose of the word of God. You have become modern day Pharisees who are blinded by their own proclaimed knowledge. Everyone is now trying to adjust the word and will of God to themselves and picks what best suits them. I don’t think many of they folks caught up in these ridiculous debates have truly ever met Jesus and ironically despite having all this “knowledge” of Greek that and “Hebrew” this are yet to see what God really wants from us. God called us to build not tear down. We need the Spirit of the Lord to mold us into what pleases the Lord not to what pleases us or makes it easier for us. The Lord doesn’t want the arrogance, he wants a humble and willing heart like that of a child who trust in him that will worship in spirit and in truth. I never new about all this craziness about translations and was brought up on the KJV’s Spanish equivalent. I wanted to get suggestions KJV variants and all I ever see is brothers fighting one another and judging one another, arrogance of some claiming to have more knowledge than others, hating on brothers who prefer the KJV calling them a cult or other calling brothers “fake because they choose a different translation. I just don’t get why in America we as a whole have this entitled mentality thinking that everything has to bend a knee to us including the word of God. It’s a shame really. Instead of fighting over things you don’t understand, go build a better relationship with Jesus and ask for his spirit to guide you and actually educate you in the matters of the Lord. The Parth of the Lord is narrow and long not easy and wide as we try to make it out to be.
