A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

J.B. Phillips (1906–1982) was a canon of the Anglican church, an author, and a Bible translator. His works include The Newborn Christian and his highly acclaimed translation The New Testament in Modern English.

À propos de la quatrième de couverture

I would like to make it clear to my readers that this new edition is in fact a new translation from the latest and best Greek text published by the United Bible Societies in 1966 and recognized by scholars of all denominations as the best source available. Naturally some considerable parts of the former translation reappear, but that is only because after considerable thought I did not think I could improve upon their wording. However, the reader may rest assured that every single Greek word was read and considered. This rather exacting task me more than two years.
