(NEB)
The New English Bible (NEB).
This was not a revision like the RSV but a completely new translation from the
Hebrew and the Greek. Many scholars from Great Britain headed up by C. H. Dodd
worked on this project. The New Testament was released in 1961, exactly 350
years after the first publishing of the KJV and the complete version in 1970. The
NEB was immediately loved in Britain having been written in a very modern yet
dignified way. It was criticized for being a little too sophisticated and
therefore less popular in the United States. Some scholars say that there are many
theological problems with the Greek renderings of the NEB and can be misleading
to the person who doesn't know any Greek.
