New Testament

New Revised Standard Version

De: Oasis Audio

Narrado por: Various

The NRSV has received the widest acclaim and broadest support from academics and church leaders of any modern English translation.

Rooted in the past, but right for today, the NRSV continues the tradition of William Tyndale, the King James Version, the American Standard Version, and the Revised Standard Version. Equally important, it sets a new standard for the 21st century. The NRSV stands out among the many translations because it is "as literal as possible" in adhering to the ancient texts and only "as free as necessary" to make the meaning clear in graceful, understandable English. It draws on newly available sources that increase our understanding of many previously obscure biblical passages. These sources include new-found manuscripts, the Dead Sea Scrolls, other texts, inscriptions, and archaeological finds from the ancient Near East, and new understandings of Greek and Hebrew grammar.

I just finished going through the Koran and...

If you have spiritual antennae this is such a beautiful book.

Instead of killing people we are to be living sacrifices.

Instead of fighting wars we are to turn the other cheek.

Bless those who curse us.

Love Love Love.

And don't sin.

Love it.

Great job!

I start my day listening to the books on the New Testament;it gives me the opportunity to reflect on what I hear. I enjoy my Quiet time with the narrator on my background. The narrators are not monotonous. Thanks again!I😇😇😇😇

No chapter headings, difficult to use

No chapter headings, making the audiobook impossible to use. Very frustrating. Why can’t this be corrected?

Great Audiobook

I am a horrible atheist with no experience with the bible whatsoever. Bought this audiobook because it turns out that an understanding of the New Testament is pretty important for reading pretty much any book of Western Political Thought written in the past two thousand years.

The narration is great--very expressive, and really kept my interest. The translation is very clear and easy to understand. I bought this audiobook dreading the project I was embarking upon, but have come to really enjoy listening to the Bible while doing other projects. Definitely recommend this audiobook to anyone who's interested in learning more about this extremely influential document.

A struggle to listen too

Didn't expect there to be any dramatic reading in this book. It made for very difficult listening, especially with this narrator, who's speech would speed up too fast from time to time and left section endings hanging like there was more to come. Poor voice inflection often. Was also a challenge to navigate chapters and books as there is no index corelation.

Great translation, unfortunate narration

I love this modern translation, but the narration is beyond annoying. One ought not try to add something to the Bible; one ought to simply convey the narrative without interpretation or embellishment.

love the word

I love the word of GOD but changing it to what you think it should say brings grave judgement Jesus said about this and and the Hypocrites say we are not done such things

Awesome

Very well read. It greatly helped me understand the New Team like I never have before. Truly enjoyed it!

A decent way to ingest the word

I would love to find a new testament reading that doesn't seem over dramaticized. it feels unnatural, and makes it more difficult to follow the logical flow.

Books of the Bible not noted!!!

The reader was fine, the word of God true to the text, but if you planning on usi g it in any practical way, think again. "Chapters" 1-6 are Matthew. you will have to listen to find out out where the books start and end. It doesn't help that you can't search.
