Holy Bible: From the Ancient Eastern Text: George M. Lamsa's Translation From th

This is a great Bible for study and personal reflection. Very Easy to read and understand. Of all the bibles I've had in my lifetime, I highly recommend this one.

If you look at the history of this translation you will find that Lamsa is the ONLY translation of the Syriac Peshitta (arguably the oldest original Scriptural writing) done by a native Aramaic speaker who grew up near the very same region Christ grew up. It preserves the meaning of the word. This is my go-to for understanding God's Word! Highly recommended.

This bible has more of the translations. In other versions a ton of the text got removed during the translation, this book is much closer to the original manuscripts than say the king james.

The version is great. Quality good !

GREAT to FINALLY have a translation that's closest to being 'accurate'! Over seventy (70) translations since the first one was done a few hundred years ago! AMAZING that someone who grew up in the area where Christ grew up ... speaking the language today as it was spoken at the time He was on the earth is indeed a BLESSING!

Pretty good condition. Few creases on the front and back of the book, all the other pages are great condition. No highlighter used when I received this book. Thank you!

Gave as donation to church.Thank you.Ellen

I like Lamsa's interpretation from the Eastern source. I thought it would be more like his other books on the New and Old Testament Light. There, he delves into the culture of the time in correlation with Biblical History and other sources.
