THOSE NEW
BIBLE
TRANSLATIONS:
It's a pertinent question for National
By CURTIS MITCHELL
Y do men keep making new translations
of the Bible?
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
