What people are saying
“The best New Testament I have ever owned”
“I purchased this book quite a while ago, and love it more and more every day. Along with Charles William’s New Testament, this translation is excellent, most notably because of his faithfulness to the Greek verb tenses (especially the Present tenses and the Aorist tenses where context demonstrates a durational rather than one-time action). That changes everything, most notably the urgency of ongoing belief and holiness found when those passages are properly translated. His comments also keep a keen focus on the immediate context, as well as alternate translations and acceptable synonyms. I have been cross-checking his translation with the detailed work found in Life In The Son by Shank, and A.T. Robertson’s Word Pictures in the New Testament, and Mr. Magill’s faithfulness to the Greek is stellar. The best New Testament I have ever owned!” W.B.
“You will not find any translation… more true to the Greek”
“I own both the TransLine and now this more concise [DLNT]… While what I learned in my years of studying Greek has faded, I remember enough to be able to say with confidence that as far as I am concerned, you will not find any translation–and I own numerous–that is more true to the Greek. It is also simply refreshing to read as I find it well written even within the restrictions for the sake of accuracy the translator held himself to…” Chaz from Montana
“An extremely valuable resource” for a busy pastor
“I have been a pastor for almost 20 years and your TransLine is an extremely valuable resource! One of the challenges confronting pastors is time – especially taking the time to outline the passage so it is accurate, excellent and memorable. Your work has been a lifesaver for me! I appreciate your labor of love so much. I use your book almost every day and have recommended it to many friends.” B.A. from Kansas
“The best NT out yet”
“This is the best NT out yet. The text follows the Greek text as close as possible in English.The flow of thought of the Greek comes out very nicely in the outline format as well as Greek idioms and expressions of thought. The notes on facing page (all right pages) are excellent. This NT is an excellent work and for those of us who have a working knowledge of NT Greek, it will help you to read the Greek NT.” E.B. from Kentucky
“One of my most used resources”
“Hello…I ordered a TransLine Bible from Amazon and wow what a resource. I am a seminarian, I know Hebrew, Greek and stick mainly to scholarly original language resources. I have literally thousands of resources. I don’t say this to brag but only to say the TransLine Bible will be one of my most used resources among the thousands I have. Thank so much for your hard work in putting this together! I think one of the best features of it is the overview. It will really help to follow the thought flow through the books… “. M.P.
“I give this… not merely a “5” but a “10” star rating”
“After perusing the New Testament TransLine all I can say is–“WOW!” Being a teacher and perpetual student of New Testament Greek, I am amazed at just how well-done this resource is. It so closely parallels the New Testament Greek, and yet is not unintelligible for English readers. And the commentary notes and concise word studies (drawing from BAGD and Liddell and Scott) are truly outstanding. The author does a good job of providing a variety of interpretations without allowing his own biases to come to the surface. No grinding the proverbial “theological ax” here… All of this makes this resource a “must” for any pastor, teacher, or just anyone who wants to do the kind of in depth, deep-down study that lovers of God’s word love to do. I give this resource not merely a “5” but a “10” star rating.” S.L.S from Arizona
