Last year, for example, a revision of the New Testa ment was published. Created by a committee of English scholars, it was called the "New English Bible." Now the same group is preparing drastic word changes in a re vised Old Testament to be published in four years. Changing the Bible is nothing new. It has been going on for centuries, and each new version has had its de fenders and attackers. Take these comments on the most recent New Testament revision: "Here is liquid eloquence," says the Rev. Daniel A. Poling. "The Sermon on the Mount, the 14th chapter of St. John's Gospel . . . these and so many others misted my eyes and put a song in my heart." "It has no tang or even flavor," writes J. Donald Adams, in the New York Times. "I find it a wishy-washy approximation of current English." What moves men to undertake such controversial labors which historically have brought them harsh penalties? A typical case is that of a Belgian army chaplain named Paul Passelecq who became a concentration-camp prisoner in World War II. For the first time, he learned how little an average man understood Christ's message as printed in old French Bibles. "If I live, I'll do something about this," he vowed. When American troops liberated him at Dachau, he rented a room and worked around the clock to translate the New Testament from the early Greek. When he com pleted Matthew, he published it as a small pamphlet. Next, Mark and Luke, and the remainder. Bible-hungry people demanded more, and his project absorbed his time year after year. Without support from any agency, he has printed and distributed hundreds of thousands of French language Bibles which people could understand. IN 1883, a Swedish missionary couple, Dr. and Mrs. Earl Lindquist, went to Eritrea in Northeast Africa to meet a miserable people lacking even a written language. The missionaries decided that their first service, after food and medicine, should be a Bible in the native tongue. Mrs. Lindquist learned Tigriiia, the local dialect, re duced it to writing, and began her arduous task. She fin ished the New Testament 20 years later. When her husband died, she was ordered home. "My work has just begun," she argued, and went ahead. After 46 more years, she had translated the Old Testament. Only then did she retire. How did it start this spreading of the Word? Following the ministry of Jesus and the Apostle St. Paul's journeys, Christianity exploded throughout the civilized world. Hand-copied Gospels multiplied wherever men could recall His sayings. Almost four centuries later, Pope Damasus in Rome felt the need for a version that would accurately express the content of the original Greek accounts of Jesus' life. To perform this task, he chose a learned priest named 14 Family Wnkly, October 14, JM2 I ;r;a-i.T-:tr.i;;:Ev.V r;i7?rw s 10 r.miivwiciy.ocioDri.iM. CYSTEX at druHUU. rl bUM iMt.
