Chapter 1, Proverbs of Solomon, NMB

Posted on June 17, 2018 by rmd Posted in MB

This is a foretaste of the Proverbs in the New Matthew Bible. The Book of Proverbs is incredibly clear and easy to understand in the original 1537 Matthew Bible. Here we have updated only obsolete grammar and a few obvious obsolete words. This is not the final version, but it is obvious that the final

Altars Covered in Tears – Malachi

Posted on May 15, 2018 by rmd Posted in MB

Everywhere I turn I see big semantic and doctrinal changes introduced in the Geneva Bible, when the Puritans took the Scriptures in hand and revised them. Take Malachi 2:13-16. Both the Matthew and Geneva Bibles mention altars covered with tears. Both say there is a problem in Israel: the men despise their wives, and the

Psalm 2 in the 1537 Matthew Bible: So clear!

Posted on March 7, 2018 by rmd Posted in MB

Here is the original translation of Psalm 2 as we received it in the 1537 Matthew Bible, before it went on to be revised in the Great Bible, and then more so in the Geneva and King James versions. Hardly anyone knows about the Matthew Bible. It was the joint work of 3 men: William

A Peek at the Great Bible: Cranmer’s Preface

Posted on January 17, 2018 by rmd Posted in MB

When English Scriptures came to the churches in the Reformation, reactions were mixed. Some resisted. Some liked to dispute too much. In his 1540 preface to the Great Bible, Archbishop Thomas Cranmer addressed both sorts of persons.

Which Was the First Authorized English Bible?

Posted on November 23, 2017 by rmd Posted in MB

Despite what some ardent fans of the Matthew Bible say, it was not the first authorized English Bible. In fact, that honour goes to TWO other versions! Here’s why, and the explanation for all the confusion among historians.

The Geneva & RV Prefaces on “Correcting” the Former Translations

Posted on October 30, 2017 by rmd Posted in Geneva

The past 650 years can be divided into four periods. During the first two, God’s word struggled for light. In the latter two, men took the former translations in hand in order to revise them.

Praising vs. Thanking God

Posted on October 15, 2017 by rmd Posted in MB

At Psalm 107:21, some Bibles speak of praising God, some thanking him, and one of ‘confessing before’ him. The semantics are subtly different.

Compare Proverbs 15:22 in Different Bibles

Posted on August 29, 2017 by rmd Posted in MB Leave a comment

Good counsel vs. much counsel. What really is the point? This one bothered me when I first came to the Bible as a new Christian, until I found the 1537 Matthew Bible. See what the different versions say, and tell me if the Matthew Bible doesn’t make a whole lot more sense: ♦ Wycliffe Bible:

Sola Scriptura … Sine Verbo? Where the Geneva Bible Lost the Word of God

Posted on August 5, 2017 by rmd Posted in Geneva 4 Comments

I accept that Scripture – truly translated, that is – must be our source and arbiter of doctrine, if that is what is understood by ‘sola scriptura’. But if I were to rally around a slogan, it might be ‘Verbum prius’, or ‘the Word first’, by which I mean Him who is the Incarnate Word.
