This revised edition, which includes a powerful new preface and over a thousand changes to the text, remains steadfast in its purpose: to present the original Greek texts faithfully, devoid of doctrine and theology, and to awaken readers to the often-overlooked uncanny aspects that lie beneath the layers of doctrinal interpretation.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThrough his daring translation, characterized by its raw and unfinished quality, Hart offers a conceptual world that is vastly different from our own. He paints a vivid picture of a universe where celestial spiritual potentates of questionable character occupy the heavens, angels rule the nations of the earth as local gods, demons prowl the empty spaces, and the entire cosmos is perceived as either an eternal divine order or a darkened prison house. He challenges readers to reimagine this world anew, envisioning a God who appears in the form of a slave and dies as a criminal, only to be raised up and revealed as the Lord of all things.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis second edition of David Bentley Harts New Testament translation is a testament to his dedication to scholarship and his commitment to presenting the Bible in its purest form. It offers a fresh perspective on the text, inviting readers to engage with it on a deeper level and to discover the profound insights and mysteries that lie within its pages. Whether one is a scholar, a layperson, or simply someone seeking a deeper understanding of the Bible, this translation is a valuable resource that will enrich and inspire.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 235 x 156 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780300265705\u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eEdition number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 Revised edition\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"David Bentley Hart","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44235807850746,"sku":"9780300265705","price":19.51,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1683900406479_book.jpg?v=1684161487","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/the-new-testament-a-translation-9780300265705","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
