“Translating the Bible for a New Generation”
This event has now ended. Please view this page to see all our upcoming events.
Translating the Bible requires attention both to the original text of Scripture and the target audience. Changes in the way people around the world speak and hear English are sometimes not factored into translation as much as they need to be. In this lecture, we will analyze some of these changes and discuss new techniques to help translators meet the goal of enabling English speakers to hear and appreciate the enduring message of God’s Word.
This lecture is part of our Summer Lecture 2016 series.
Doug Moo is the Chair of the Committee on Bible Translation, which oversees the New International Version. He taught for twenty-three years at Trinity Evangelical Divinity School before moving to Wheaton College in 2000, where he is currently the Kenneth T. Wessner Professor of New Testament. His publications include A Commentary on the Epistle to the Romans.
Dr. Moo will be teaching the class "The Epistle of Romans in Context" from May 23 - June 3 as part of our 2016 Summer Programs. Learn more at rgnt.net/summer.
