Nueva Biblia De Las Américas (NBLA)

Español:

La Nueva Biblia de las Américas (NBLA) previamente conocido como Nueva Biblia Latinoamericana de Hoy (NBLH)).

Esta edición se presenta como otra contribución a la traducción de las Sagradas Escrituras en nuestro lenguaje, y se han usado palabras y frases contemporáneas para facilitar la lectura. El pronombre «ustedes», con sus verbos correspondientes, se usa en lugar de «vosotros». El pronombre formal «usted» se ha usado en aquellas ocasiones en que una persona se dirige a otra superior.

English:

La Nueva Biblia de las Américas (NBLA)  (formerly known as Nueva Biblia Latinoamericana de Hoy (NBLH)).

This edition is presented as another contribution to the translation of the Holy Scriptures into the Spanish language, and contemporary words and phrases have been used to facilitate reading. The pronoun “ustedes”, with its corresponding verbs, is used instead of “vosotros”. The formal pronoun “usted” has been used on those occasions when a person addresses a superior.

La Biblia de las Americas (LBLA)

LA BIBLIA DE LAS AMERICAS es una traducción fiel de las Sagradas Escrituras según fueron escritas originalmente en hebreo, arameo y griego. Se ha producido con el propósito de ofrecer al mundo de habla hispana la riqueza y el poder de la Palabra de Dios en forma tal que sea un verdadero tesoro devocional y un instrumento práctico de estudio.

Esta versíon es producto de la intensa labor y dedicación de un considerable número de eruditos de distintas denominaciones cristianas, representantes de varios países de Hispanoamérica, de España y de los Estados Unidos. Se publica con la firme convicción de que las Sagradas Escrituras, según fueron escritas en los idiomas originales, fueron inspiradas por Dios, y puesto que son su eterna Palabra, hablan con renovado poder a cada generación para impartir la sabiduría que lleva a la salvación en Cristo, equipando al creyente para disfrutar de una vida abundante y feliz en la tierra, y constituyéndolo en testimonio viviente de la verdad para la gloria eterna de Dios.

El Comité Editorial ha observado dos principios básicos: En primer lugar, ha tratado de ceñirse en todo lo posible a los idiomas originales de las Sagradas Escrituras, y en segundo lugar, ha observado las reglas de la gramática moderna en una dimensión continental contemporánea, usando un estilo ágil y ameno, procurando mantener la mayor belleza literaria.

People in the Bible: Jonah

Description

We are often told that good things come in small packages, and this is the case when it comes to the book of Jonah.  Through just four chapters we discover many layers to the life of this prophet and to the character of the God who does not give up—whether on this prophet, or on the barbaric city he called this prophet to reach.
We follow Jonah on the run, on the beach, in the city and eventually in the great dock of God.  As we uncover this dramatic story, we see that God has not only the will to reach a violent city, but also the grace to reach the heart of a stubborn prophet

People in the Bible: Jesus

Description

We can be glad for Mel Gibson’s film, The Passion of the Christ, in at least one respect: it has familiarized many with the term ‘Passion’. People now know it refers to the suffering of Jesus Christ. How did his suffering come to be called the ‘passion’? The answer is our word ‘passion’ comes from the Latin word ‘passio’, which means ‘suffering’.

The Passion of Christ is an inexhaustible subject. In these warm and challenging devotional studies, Roger Ellsworth takes a look at the Passion through the eyes of the people most closely associated with it. By reminding us again of the wonder of what Christ did on the cross for ordinary people, he encourages us to become more passionate about the Passion and how we serve our Saviour.

People in the Bible: Philip

Description

Evangelism.

What immediately springs to mind when you read that word? Whatever reaction you may have, evangelism is becoming increasingly dangerous in an apparently post-secular Western world, yet the church has a continuing mandate to be a witness and to share the great message of the gospel.

This book looks at the gospel adventures of Philip the Evangelist and draws lessons that will encourage, enliven and challenge you. It will ultimately also inspire you to lift up the sword of the Spirit boldly and, for the sake of lost souls, enter into the evangelistic fray.

People in the Bible: Judah

Description

A book about Judah? Maybe you don’t even remember the man himself. Or, if you do, you may feel that his story is a very unpleasant one, one you’d rather not dwell on. But perhaps you also remember him pleading for the life of his half-brother Benjamin. Can you read that part of his story without being deeply moved—perhaps even to tears? And the tribe of Judah: why did that become so important in the Bible? And who is it who is ‘the Lion of the tribe of Judah’? In this book, Paul E. Brown discovers many surprising and helpful truths as he reviews the frequently ignored life and legacy of Judah.

Reclaiming the Rapture: Restoring the Doctrine of the Gathering of the Commonwealth of Israel

End-times Bible prophecy is like a 1000-piece jigsaw puzzle partially done. Many godly people have come before us establishing the borders of the puzzle. Parts of the faces and landscape are taking form, yet without the box cover showing the finished product, no one really knows how it ought to look when it is entirely assembled. The timing of the rapture is a puzzle-piece incorrectly placed by many mainstream theologians.

Authors Dr. Douglas Hamp and Chris Steinle take a fresh look at the rapture based on extensive Bible prophecy and a literal interpretation of the Scriptures. It’s time to rethink God’s purpose for the rapture: Is it an escape or a preparation for something greater? The rapture was prophesied from Genesis to Revelation. Why have dozens of rapture prophecies been overlooked by mainstream theology? Explore the ancient texts and discover God’s clear and consistent revelation of end time events.

* Explore dozens of rapture verses.
* Understand the logic behind Paul’s eschatology.
* Learn why the Day of Lord includes God’s indignation, the rapture, and Second Coming.
* Enjoy dramatic vignettes from the Millennium Chronicles that bring Bible prophecies to life.
* Consider the connection between the rapture and the redemption of the body.
* Rethink the Gathering of Israel and how it applies to the Church.
* See why Paul insisted the dead must rise first.
* Know the signs preceding Christ’s return.
* Includes four charts and three vignettes to showcase the authors’ conclusions.

On wings of prayer Praying the ACTS way (On Wings of Prayer)

Constructing a prayer life is often like putting a puzzle together without the box’s cover. Having a picture makes all the difference. Bible prayers create a model of what prayer can be: exciting, fulfilling and powerful. Using the acrostic ACTS makes prayer memorable, interesting, and focused. Learn to pray following this simple outline utilized by men and women who experience the transforming power of prayer.

Reggie Weems

Reggie Weems was born in Granite City, Illinois, USA. Converted at seventeen, he worked as an Egyptian linguist for the US government before serving as Senior Pastor of two churches for thirty years. Reggie both rejoices in and struggles with the discipline of prayer. It is for that reason that he emphasizes it, practices it and encourages others to join him in the wonder of communion with God. He is married to Teana, his childhood sweetheart.

Thomason – The Greatest Song

This book is a nine chapter treatment of The Song of Solomon. It is warmly written from a dispensational point of view. While devotional and not academic, the author still holds to a literal treatment of the text.

Die Bybel in Afrikaans 1933/1953

Hierdie is die volledige Bybel in Afrikaans. Die vertaal-projek is deur die Afrikaanse kerke begin in 1926 en die voltooide Bybel is feestelik deur die kerke ontvang op Sondag 27 Augustus 1933 dwarsoor die land. Gedurende die periode 1933-1953 het die vertalers die teks hersien in die lig van kommentaar wat ontvang is op die 1933 teks. Teen die tyd dat die voltooide hersiening beskikbaar geword het, het nog net een van die vertalers gelewe. Hierdie vertaling het voortreflike hoedanighede gehad en was van besonder groot betekenis vir die vestiging van die Afrikaanse taal.

The First Six Days: Confronting the God-Plus-Evolution Myth

A powerful examination of the biblical, linguistic, historical and archaeological evidence affirming that the creation days of Genesis were nothing but real and literal days. If you think that God worked through evolution, read this book and be challenged. If you believe that God created in a literal six days, read this book and be strengthened.

Douglas Hamp’s work The First Six Days is a much needed contribution to settle the question of days or ages. As a Hebrew language specialist trained at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, he demonstrates convincingly from the pages of Scripture that the days of the Genesis creation account are literal days. He also carefully clarifies some misrepresentations of what day means in Hebrew. This is followed up by a stimulating review of the literal, six-day position held by ancient Jewish and Christian interpreters as well as archaeological corroboration of the biblical record.

Revised Chinese Union Version 和合本修訂版 和合本修订版, Traditional Chinese 繁體版 (RCUVt)

修訂緣由
「聖經都是上帝所默示的,於教訓、督責、使人歸正、教導人學義都是有益的,叫屬上帝的人得以完全,預備行各樣的善事。」
提摩太後書3:16-17

為了讓華人也有一本他們能讀得明白的中文聖經,在一百多年前,多位西教士離鄉別井,遠赴重洋,來到中國,克服語言的限制、文化的差異,把聖經翻譯成中文。「和合本」聖經終於在一九一九年面世,讓中國億萬同胞認識真道,靈命得以建立。

廣泛諮詢
「和合本」聖經自面世以來,一直是廣為普世華人教會使用的「標準譯本」,輔助華人教會在這八十多年的歲月中成長。隨着時代的轉變,中文出現很大的變化,一些在當代十分順暢的字詞和語句,今天已鮮為人知,有些詞語的含義也改變了。因此,為了讓這一代華人更清楚、更容易地明白上帝的話語,聯合聖經公會於一九八三年先後在香港及新加坡等地,舉行有關修訂「和合本」的研討會,教會領袖普遍認同有需要對「和合本」作出修訂,於是我們組織一隊聖經學者、翻譯顧問及編輯人員,開始從事修訂的工作。

經過多年努力,我們於二零零零年完成了新約初稿,並出版了《四福音書》和《羅馬書》試用本。同年九月,聯合聖經公會再次在香港召開會議,議決由香港聖經公會全權統籌初稿試用後的修訂工作,並從中國、馬來西亞、新加坡、香港等地邀請多位聖經學者、翻譯顧問和編輯人員,參與「和合本」最後的修訂及審閱工作。中國基督教兩會不但在一九九零年派同工參與此項聖工,並於二零零三年正式來函表達支持,務求「和合本」修訂版出版後,能為普世華人教會所樂用。

為了使修訂工作精益求精,我們於二零零一年九月在香港,以及二零零二年一月在新加坡和馬來西亞舉行「和合本」修訂版顧問座談會。我們更於二零零四年十二月,特別為「和合本」最後的修訂事工舉行了一次大型的交流會,應邀赴會的海內外百多位華人學者及教牧同道均表達「和合本」修訂版應盡量採用各地華人都能明白的文句與詞彙。這是一個很寶貴的共識,亦符合我們修訂的原則。

嚴謹修訂
在長達二十多年的修訂過程中,同工們祈求聖靈的帶領,並帶着戰戰兢兢的心,對每一個句子、詞彙、字眼,都嚴謹地對照原文,也參考各種譯本,仔細推敲,反復琢磨,力求完善。

我們所依據的新約原文聖經是聯合聖經公會於一九九三年出版的希臘文聖經(第四版),其中匯集了聖經及考古學學者們許多年來對聖經抄本的考證、校勘等方面的研究成果,是目前全球最為可信的文本。此外,我們在修訂的過程中,也參閱了近幾十年來各國聖經學者的學術文獻,使我們對原文聖經的理解更加準確。

除了忠於原文外,我們還考慮到文字的曉暢,對較古僻、容易產生歧義和不符合今天人們表達習慣的字、詞、句都作出適當的修改;同時,我們也力求保持「和合本」原來的風格,只在有需要修改時才作出修改。

感謝主的保守
在上帝的帶領下,經過多年的耕耘,《和合本修訂版》經已面世。深盼各位兄姊不吝指正,讓這修訂版更趨盡善盡美。在此,我們除了感謝眾多主內同工和顧問們歷年來的委身與辛勞,以及各位弟兄姊妹的代禱和支持外,更要感謝那位一直引導我們的上帝,惟有靠賴他的恩典,才能完成這項他所託付我們的工作。

最後,我們謹以摯誠獻上這本聖經,求上帝使用,叫更多的人認識他,歸向他,並且「得以完全,預備行各樣的善事」。

願一切榮耀歸於上帝和他的愛子耶穌基督!

Discovering the Language of Jesus

Discovering the Language of Jesus: Hebrew or Aramaic? For the last 150 years, both popular and academic views have asserted that Jesus spoke Aramaic as his primary language of communication since supposedly Hebrew died out after the children of Israel were taken into Babylonian captivity. This view, however, is not based on the testimony of the Old Testament, the New Testament, historical sources, or Jesus’ actual words. Just which language did Jesus and his disciples speak?

Pastor and teacher Douglas Hamp takes you on a journey through history, Scripture and linguistics to solve the puzzle. By Discovering the Language of Jesus, you will gain a deeper understanding of Jesus’ words and culture and will be fully convinced that every detail in God’s Word is accurate, reliable and worthy of your trust.
