Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book is an extensive analysis of a contemporary English translation of the Bible conducted by the author at the request of Queen Elizabeth I aiming to justify and defend the accuracy, rigor, and methodology of the translation's creators. The author, whose identity is unknown, argues that the translation is free of errors and distortions of meaning and that it is a reliable and faithful presentation of the true divine message. The book was written as a response to the publication by a group of Catholic scholars that asserted the translation was corrupted and inaccurate. In response, the author provides close-reading analysis and theological exegesis to establish that the translation is true to the source text, that its English is not only accurate but accessible, and that the translators are not heretics whose translations are intended to promote heresy. The author demonstrates deep knowledge of the source texts and of theology, and the book is, therefore, an insightful contribution to the history of the Bible's influence in English-speaking religious practice and theory. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.
