English Family 35 New Testament

Wilbur Pickering, the translator of the English Family 35 Bible, promotes a philosophy of translation that privileges a specific suite of manuscripts as divinely inspired. In Pickering’s exact words, the English Family 35 Bible contains the “precise original wording of the NT, and that we can, and do, know what it is based on an empirical procedure.” The English Family 35 Bible functions, in part, as an interlinear Bible which compares different families of well-known Biblical texts.
