Translating the New Testament
Stanley E. Porter, Mark J. BodaPaperback 2009-09-14
Stanley Porter and Mark Boda here bring together a group of respected theologians to provide an up-to-date assessment of translation of the New Testament in terms of textual criticism, translation theory, and theology. Each section includes theoretical essays on the interface of a given area with particular issues in translation, and applications of the theory to a common passage, Luke 16:19-31 (the story of the rich man and Lazarus). Advocates of different positions note the translational implications that follow from choosing a particular textual tradition or type over another.
