Introduction
Welcome to the One Week Bible
Inspiration
When I was working on my Doctorate in Biblical Studies, I had to take a survey course on the Bible. The survey contained an outline and paraphrased summary of every book of the Bible, but only quoted a verse or two for the points in the outline. When I looked on my own for other alternatives, I found Bible story books that only paraphrased selected events in the Bible that they found appealing to kids.
As I prayerfully read through the Bible, and discussed with others, we found that the Bible was filled with repetition; many passages summarize events written in other books of the Bible. I asked, why don’t seminaries today provide a short survey course of the Bible that is the Bible? This led me to write an online Bible survey course for my doctoral practical work. As time went on, and I received feedback, I began feeling called to write this easy to read, One Week Bible for everyone to use.
Bible Reading with Prayer
Every time I read the Bible, I find it most bennificial when I pray about what I am about to read. When you pray, it doesn’t need to be a long prayer:
Eccl 5 WEB
2. Don’t be rash with your mouth, and don’t let your heart be hasty to utter anything before God; for God is in heaven, and you on earth. Therefore let your words be few.
Jesus Christ tells us how to pray, and gives us this example:
Matthew 6 KJV
9. After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.
10. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.
11. Give us this day our daily bread.
12. And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.
13. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.
Each day that you read the One Week Bible, remember to pray for understanding.
John 14 OEBus
13. Whatever you ask, in my name, I will do, so that the Father may be honored in the Son.
The One Week Bible has prayer tips, but God knows your situation and knows how to help guide you when you ask.
English Versions of the Bible
The text of the Bible has been transmitted faithfully for thousands of years. Scribes have written everything word for word, and the oldest texts found have only had minor differences. The language however, was primarily Hebrew, Greek, or Aramaic. In 382, the Catholic Church authorized St. Jerome to translate these texts into Latin, with a translation called the Latin Vulgate.
The Church did not support having an English language Bible. For centuries, people in England and France, like William Tyndale illegally translated at the penalty of death. A group of Puritans fled to Geneva and published the Geneva Translation in 1557. Soon after, the English Bibles finally became legal in England. The Church of England first established and authorized the Bishops’ Bible in 1568, then updated it in 1572. The Bishop’s Bible was the prescribed textual basis for the King James Version (KJV).
English translations like this allowed scientific endeavors. Starting in the late 1800’s, archeology English speaking archeologist began uncovering many of the ancient artifacts and writings that support the people, places, culture, and historicity of the Bible.
Introduction to the King James Version
Today, the King James Version serves as one of the most quoted, best loved translations of the English Language. The introduction to the 1611 edition explains that it is intended to be a translation in the common tongue.
According to the Passages traveling museum exhibit, the translation team worked primarily in Latin, even discussing in Latin. A series of original Hebrew language text was consulted, known as the Textus Receptus or Received text. The New Testament was heavily Latin based, using St Jerome’s, Latin Vulgate 382. The Greek text used in the New Testament was primarily Erasumus’ Novum Instrumentum Omne 1516, which was partly based on the Latin Vulgate.
The King James Version was updated in 1769. It became authorized by many English speaking Churches in the 1700’s, and is commonly referred to as the Authorized King James Version.
In her 2011 King James Anniversary address, Queen Elizabeth of England said, Although we may pause for a moment, even have a long moment, at the modern translations, we must always return to the elegancy of the King James.
The King James Version is used throughout the One Week Bible.
Introduction to the World English Bible, Old Testament
The World English Bible was developed to be a modern-English translation in the Public Domain. A desire to be freely transmitted over the world wide web inspired the acronym of WEB.
The World English Bible translates the Hebrew from Biblia Hebraica Stuttgartensia, with minor adjustments from the Dead Sea Scrolls and the Septuagint. From the World English Bible website: The World English Bible is an update of the American Standard Version (ASV) of the Holy Bible, published in 1901. A custom computer program updated the archaic words and word forms to contemporary equivalents, and then a team of volunteers proofread and updated the grammar.
.
The World English Bible translation, published in 2009, is used for the modern, Old Testament text of One Week Bible. WEB is available in the print edition of One Week Bible.
Introduction to the Open English Bible, New Testament
The Open English Bible strives to be a public domain, free to quote and use resource. It considers itself as an open source equivalent of the New International Version (NIV). The original language for the New Testament is Greek, translated from the Westcott & Hort Critical Text, but the starting point was an earlier English Translation named, Twentieth Century New Testament, published in 1904. One Week Bible uses the Open English Bible (US Spellings) , published in 2011, for the modern, New Testament Text. OEBus is available in the print edition of One Week Bible.
