Excellent and Proper English Translation of the Orthodox NT5
The One-Volume Edition of the Famous Orthodox New Testament by Holy Apostles Convent is exceptional. I highly endorse this English translation of the Official Greek New Testament text as published and approved by the Patriarch of Constantinople for both private study and liturgical use in The Holy Orthodox Church. The English translation is beautiful and sublime. The cadence of its sentences with the accuracy of its English in its proper translation of the Greek is a great combination. More than any other English translation this is the ONLY english translation of the New Testament that should be used by every Orthodox Christian (It gets the energy words exactly right!). It is literally the Best English translation of the New Testament on the market, and probably the best one ever since the King James Version. I highly endorse and recommend the Orthodox New Testament one-volume edition. Axios!

A most accurate New Testament5
If you are seeking a New Testament closes to its original written language (Greek) this is an excellent version, as a single word missed or deleted from the modern versions, readily available, can change (modify) the meaning of the original message or place it in a different perspective. Although a bit difficult to read at times,with patience and good understanding, you can extract a tremendous amount of knowledge and wisdom.

My new first string bible 5
I own this one-volume version of the Orthodox New Testament. It is translated from the 1912 Byzantine Text, and uses the KJV as a starting point, but clarifying some of the more obscure wording of the KJV. The Orthodox New Testament uses Greek theological words like "Logos" and "hypostasis" in the text (see for example, John 1:1 and Hebrews 1:3). The Orthodox New Testament is a wonderful translation, a joy to read, maintaining much the traditional KJV language and phraseology; but it is more accurate and understandable. I just love it. It also has icons printed on several pages. Fits in a small bible cover, very portable. Although this edition of the Orthodox New Testament is a soft cover, the cover itself is of very good quality and feels durable. The Orthodox New Testament features large print for the size of the book, making it easy to read, and is printed in an attractive single column format. I highly recommend it. It is my new first string bible.
