That’s a very detailed history and description on NLT. 👍🏼 As a non-native English speaker, NLT has been a blessing for me. Especially in my early walk in my faith. I find it very useful to be used in group bible study with youths and young adults in my community.

My understanding is that the Living Bible is a paraphrase of the ASV, while the NLT is a full-bored translation--not a paraphrase. Thank you, Mr. Murray, for this channel. I am learning a lot from you.

The 2015 NLT is an excellent bible . I still prefer the NKJV/KJV, but that's because of traditional biased ears. Reading from the NLT, especially in the OT, is very helpful for me personally. I think most of the big popular versions are all good in their own way. BUT English speaking folks do not need any more bible translations, it's ridiculou$. 😏

A lot of people care, sadly. Some people reject any bible translation where _any_ woman was involved, _because_ a woman was involved. They believe either that a woman should not be "teaching" or even that a woman should not be working at all EVER outside the home. Because of such beliefs, we have recent translations like the ESV 2001 where the over 90 people who worked on it were all men. It was led by Wayne Grudem, who had co-authored a book that says women should not work outside the home, should not drive buses, and should not give directions to a man who is lost because this equals women teaching and leading. The ESV is a generally reliable translation, except in the area of gender, where they deliberately translate through the lense of "women exist primarily as helpers to men" . On the other side are scholars like Katharine Bushnell (1855-1946), a translator who argued that the sexual predation she found among "Christian" British men in the Colonies in Asia were a _result_ of a Bible translation committees that excluded women. She did a lot of influential scholarship and translation work. Historian Kristen Kobes DuMez wrote a fantastic book on her. Worth checking out. Naturally, I side with Bushnell's arguments. It's silly to think that only men should do translation work. It's crazy to think that you won't distort some meaning for half the population of there is no one in the room to give that perspective. A lot of writing has been done on the subject, and people have a lot of strong feelings on both sides of the debate. So, I feel happy when I see females included in translation committees, because they are _deliberately_ excluded from some very well marketed versions.

Problem with neutralizing Psalm 1 is that that uses explicitly masculine language (for example the Latin translation goes out of the way to use "vir", man, rather than "homo", person).

@@politereminder6284 In some cases, NO. There are many places where messages are directed ONLY to men or ONLY to women. For example, Paul often directed his message specifically to the men in his audience to the exclusion of women, and then separately either addresses women or tells the men to do so. In this case using the gender neutral language is wrong. Also Psalm 1, as I mentioned, is explicitly worded in a way that _cannot_ refer to women.
