1. Good stuff 2. I envy your natural (seeming) giftedness at public speaking.
@@ma-mo Lots of experience that doesn't quite translate on normal YT videos, Im afraid!
Really wonderful illustration and message, thanks for sharing it with us Joe!
Imagine you are camping in a very peaceful spot, and when the sun goes down you go inside your tent and start reading that beauty, material joy.
@@bayfokbalg4746 That's what Im talkin' 'bout!
I’m a very new subscriber who didn’t know you are a fellow pencil collector! I love your videos and also your civil, interesting, normal (in the best way) viewers. It’s so tiresome to read comments attacking various denominations or translations. Whatever you post, and whenever, you have a community that appreciates you.
@@kris.1095 thank you, glad you meandered my way! We do have a great community here on YT. Not big enough to get the attention of the crazies!
This version of the bible was weird as weird could get for real at least for me yup😂😢😂
Love The Pencils 😊 How can I get a St. Egg Pencil? Will You be reviewing the RSV Sovereign Personal Size Bible? My first time reading thr RSV and I'm really enjoying this translation. Blessings to you and your family 🙏
@@viviancampbell2106 That sounds great! I prob won't review the Bible because I cant spend the money! Pencils will be my next purchase though sometime this year!
Always good to see a St. Eggs vid! I've thought for some time that I need to send a postcard or something as I always appreciate when you do, this is a good reminder of the value of sending something "the old fashioned way" especially since I'm less active here.
@@ThriftStoreBibles Correspondences are great!! I love getting something tangible!
Thanks for sharing Nice collection God Bless
@@rosebergmanJesusLovesYou Thank you! You too!
4 years, man that seems like a lifetime ago, but also just the other day. Content creating is a double edged sword, on the one hand getting feedback and dialouge with others is great, but also putting your heart into something only to hear crickets its incredibly dibilitating. Even if you're not looking for attention, when you paint a pretty picture its nice to hear someone say good job. Premium bible videos are a dime a dozen, and I think materialism and envy is the elephant in the room on those. It goes beyond having something quality to ogling over leathers and generating covetousness in the viewership. I am thankful for this little community, we got a genuine diversity of christian beliefs that isn't government mandated and we can get along and just enjoy niche content with contentment. Thank you Joe. You paint a pretty picture.
@@ColinV03 Thank you, Colin! Yes, I find more reviews on premium Bibles than others these days. I always enjoyed seeing how normal prices Bibles are used!
It's always a pleasure to spend time with you
@@gents6379 And you too, good Sir!
How is it?
@@CanadianAnglican I have a review on my channel somewhere
@@joest.eggbenedictus1896 thank you I’ll take a look. Recently really have gotten into the CSB. It’s a great translation.
I can't tell you to Make It Public without sounding self-serving. But I still think you should share it. If all of TH-cam was people going through their boxes of pencils, I think I'd be okay with that.
@@ma-mo ill think about it
@@ma-mo thanks for the blessings and encouragement, good Friend!
I like the black & green Bible the best out of the two. That's a steal of a deal on the R.C. Sproul autographed copy. 🙂
😮Boo to gender neutral versions.
The amplified bible was my introduction to reading the Bible for the good pleasure of reading the Bible. I’m so old I remember when J. Vernon McGee recommended this translation. Good positive review.
@@PrentissYeates ha! That's great!
I have yet to see any positive changes for the NRSVue over the NRSV.
That signed R.C. Sproul book was a great find!
@@janicevincent378 right?!
Cool finds!
The rendition of the Psalms alone make this bible worth buying
When I was in college they handed out those green ones to us.
Yes! It must be a popular choice on college campuses. My students received the little green ones at the beginning of the year.
Gideon ESV, TRON edition for the win.
One of these days I’m gonna catch me one!
The Gideons have a color code for their Bibles according to Wikipedia. Green is the color given to college students.
Thank you for pointing out Mark 1:1 in the updated NRSV Bible. I have the NRSV Cultural Backgrounds Study Bible ©2019 and Mark 1:1 reads, "The beginning of the good news of Jesus Christ, the son of God." I had to check out what my Bible had printed. "the Son of God" should definitely not be left out in the version you have and left to a footnote explanation. I agree with you. Thank you!
Thank you for your Review and Pointing out Matthew 28:17. I don't think I have ever paid attention to this particular Bible, and I am a Bible Collector. Thank you for pointing this one out.
@@reneallen9556 you got it!
2 Peter 1:20-21 20 First of all you must understand this, that no prophecy of scripture is a matter of one’s own interpretation, 21 because no prophecy ever came by the impulse of man, but men moved by the Holy Spirit spoke from God. Apostles and their successors have authority to interpret: 2 Peter 1:19: 19 And we have the prophetic word made more sure. You will do well to pay attention to this as to a lamp shining in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts.
Thomas Nelson just announced a sovereign collection RSV that’s available in aug. It’s up on Amazon in personal size. Very interesting
@@sdhute oh Ill look it up!
👍 I never thought there would be a big demand for the RSV but maybe people are picking it up again.
@@sdhute Its such a great Bible!
@@joest.eggbenedictus1896thanks I did a preorder
I can hear the "no major doctrine is affected" horn a blowing but the ship is taking on water and the poop deck is on fire.
@@ColinV03 ha! poop deck, he said
If references to "the Son of God" were systematically removed from Mark, then it would affect a doctrine. The question here is whether Mark chose to "spoil the twist" on the first page or not. (Considering how Mark 1.11 reads, you don't have to wait long for this doctrine to emerge, even in the NRSVue.)
The translators have an agenda. Perhaps it's time to look at the Majority Text, Joe.
This is one of those variants that scholars go back and forth on. If I recall correctly, the original RSV omitted it, but later editions of the RSV restored it to the main text. The New American Bible puts it in brackets.
Is the update now the official NRSV? Specifically, is the 1989 version going to cease being printed (so get it while you can)?
@@Seaclock35 I'm not entirely sure. Maybe Oxford will still print them, but haven't seen any other new 89 editions.
The NRSV 1989 is discontinued. The NRSVue will eventually replace all printings of the 1989. There are still some 1989 editions available, but eventually, that will not be the case.
@@FrKevinDaugherty I should probably purchase a back up NOAB 4th edition before its too late! I think I can get 15- 20 more years out of the one I have.
@@joest.eggbenedictus1896 I remember getting my NOAB 4th edition shortly before the 5th was released. Hardbacks, dozens of them, at my local bookstore (not Christian), being sold for about $10 a pop. I was tempted to hoard, but just one of them was already too heavy to lug around the mall.
@@joest.eggbenedictus1896 An NOAB6 with NRSVUE is in the works.
To me it makes no sense that pple demand Son of God in verse 1, that's clearly bec they're imposing their traditional modern notions onto the author, as if it's a theme or title of an essay. The fact that the official major Roman codex had such kinds of interpolation, it is very likely that the phrase was added for the same reason you feel it's paramount as the title of the gospel. The various mss including many early Church writers don't have it, which means it's likely a later addition. Secondly, that definition that Gospel word was used or meant in context of military victory is purely a bogus claim by amateur authors or apologists, I saw that in a book by Michael Bird. There is a good answer in hermeneutics stackexchange site on that question. The word gospel could be used for any good news like a victory or birth of a son or anything.
@@OneStepToday There are many verses that are disputed, but traditionally, and according to the KJV legacy, they've been included. I'm sure I got that reading from NT Wright, far from an amateur or apologist.
@@joest.eggbenedictus1896 NT Wright is an amateur author not an actual scholar; otherwise you'd have a footnote for evidence for this narrowing of semantic range of a word. But it's indeed true that good bibles like ESV still preserve traditional rendering like this "son of God" Mark 1:1 despite the NA Critical edition not having it. There should be no respect to tradition when it comes to textual criticism. We should realize that pple find it objectionable only bec they have been accustomed to reading that traditional rendering, and have made an emotional attachment around that rendering. There is a list of sample changes in the NRSVue, if u find the pdf by searching for NRSVue Bible Sampler Review frp-nrsvuearc-sampler-web-rev dot pdf, it will be helpful.
Bible translation is big business. If you want yours to stand out from the crowd, it has to be different. And eventually the changes you're making go beyond the cosmetic.
One of my gripes with the NRSVue, and a reason why I rarely recommend it over its predecessor, is that it feels like many of its variant readings are just an attempt at novelty. I don't think these are always in error, but it's hard to know as a layperson without a lot of Greek/Hebrew whether it's just doing its own thing or whether it's participating in the greater conversation of how to translate those passages which are in contention by making well-supported decisions.
Indeed it is weird for the NRSVue to omit that phrase. From what I can tell, that phrase is not in the SBL Greek NT, and since the NRSVue was revised by the SBL, they followed their own Greek NT. I would've preferred that the NRSVue put it in the main text but add brackets if they really doubt its authenticity. I mean, the NRSV have always done this with the alternate endings of Mark and the woman caught in adultery in John.
@@JimJones-kj8jk Thats an option too. "Better in than out" in this instance.
I ordered a paperback NRSVUE the other day, like you I need to do a deep dive on it but I am just a layperson. My church usually uses the NKJV. I do read the NRSV a lot.
Zondervan simply reprinted a public domain copy of the text. The second edition of this book was from 1885, two years after its initial release. (And that's not even the final edition: there was also an update in 1890.) Hence the really dated font. You'd think that the good folks at Zondervan would have bothered putting it in a modern typeface by that point.
The danger with choices like this is it will date the translation much more quickly than it otherwise would be. For example, if you read a book that uses the term "latinx" you know it was written in the 2010's to early 2020's. I feel that Bible translations, particularly ones that are intended to have more staying power like those in the NRSV tradition - should steer clear of these types of choices.
@@RoastBeefSandwich Hi, Roast Beef! What's up? Yes that's true. Actually I wouldn't point to this as an example of that, because I noticed there are other places where I thought, "That might get dated..." To bad I didn't keep a record of it.
@@joest.eggbenedictus1896 potato cakes are back at arby's my friend, that's been keeping me busy lol
How do the notes compare? Do they change the notes every edition, or do they retain most of it with some changes as new discoveries/innovations are accepted in academia? I have the 4th edition hardback and I wonder if it's worth getting the NRSVue 6th edition NOAB when it comes out (I already have a NRSVue).
@@JimJones-kj8jk The notes changed a lot between 2nd and 3rd versions, a little more from 3rd to 4th and very little from 4th to 5th. I have no idea about the 6th. The changes tend to be new or more ecumenical readings of the Word. It's good if you keep that in perspective. People forget that its an ANNOTATED Bible NOT a study Bible. So I use the NOAB for the annotations, but read the New Interpreters Study Bible (and others) for the study notes.
Which NRSV study bible is that
@@jevans6268 It is the NRSV update edition SBL Study Bible. Im reviewing it this year little by little. It came out in 2021.
Interesting. Baptists usually don't give meaning to older church practices. Too often protestant churches are too willing to see their church space as a theater. A good book to read on this change from holy space to theater is "When Church became Theater"
@@stephenkunst7550 interesting, thank you. I'll look that up.
Enjoyed the behind the scenes look! At the UMC I grew up in they had an Altar Committee made up of laity who handled changing out the liturgical colors, picking up and setting floral arrangements and so on. My grandmother served on it for as long as I can remember until she couldn't get around anymore. I miss some of the formality that came with all of that, the churches I've attended since are much more plain.
Sometimes it seems the pastor is more at the center than the bible is.
@@ColinV03 All too often, my friend.
Cool info
Good stuff, my friend.
Thanks for sharing. I have only been to one baptist church and it was ran by American IFB missionaries here in the Philippines. It had a center aisle BTW. The American missionaries insisted on using the KJV bible for preaching even though most of us Filipinos can barely understand it. At our UMC church we use the NIV. My mother (R.I.P.) donated the NIV pew bibles that we still use at our church. Is your church affiliated with a denomination like the SBC or ABC? I like churches that have liturgical/high church worship services, can't stand the rock concerts masquerading as contemporary services many new churches have today.
@@JimJones-kj8jk thank you for sharing your story!! We are SBC and Cooperative Baptist Fellowship (CBF). Most CBF churches are high liturgy
Future Pastor here - what book resources would you recommend for practical ministry stuff? I already have a NOAB and lots of theology books, but spending the past couple of years as a pastoral intern has me realizing I also need to read a bit more of the pragmatic stuff.
@@Christiamorous My recommendation is to find an author with whom you resonate. For me, it is Henri Nouwen. His book "Wounded Healer" shaped my ministry the most out of all I've read. I also go to Walter Brueggemann for Old Testament, and David Gushee for ethics. A little book written by Farris called the Ten Commandments for New Ministers is one I've used in mentoring ministerial students. So find an author and go from there!
@@joest.eggbenedictus1896 I actually have The Wounded Healer on my shelf! It was given to me along with a bunch of others by a retired Pastor, I'm opening it up now. Thanks for the recommendation!
