Hi all,

Ok so although im in no way new to bible study, i am new to word study's of the bible. Although the software packages like e-sword offer a vast array of interlinears and bibles coded with the strongs numbers along side the text, I am a lover of books. I realy want an interlinear coded to every strongs number, but the only one i seem to be able to find is the Green's which is accompanied by a literal translation, and i would preffer a modern english translation like the NKJV, NIV etc. Im not particularly bothered about the interlinear's English accompanyment, just not the litteral translation, however the strongs coding I would very much like somthing with the aforementioned translations. Is it possible to buy a bible with all the words strongs coded the way it appears in e-sword for example, and what are they called, and what editions also include the parsing codes? And are there any other (more afordeable) interlinears either with or without strongs numbers. Ive tried searching Amazon, but to no avail. Any help would be more than appreciated.

God bless,

Tony.

Why bother with an Interlinear Bible manuscript text if you're going to heed a modern translation like the NIV or NKJV anyway?

The whole idea of going into the manuscripts of God's Word is for the purpose of greater accuracy in the 'original' Bible languages, not necessarily to find an easier translation.

Just so you'll know, the NIV is NOT a translation from the same set of manuscripts. The KJV comes from the Majority texts or Received texts, of which there were more copies showing wider usage. The NIV has the Alexandrian texts which are presented as being older, but were fewer, showing less circulation and usage.

Because I dont speak Hebrew, Aramic or Koine, and no offence, but I dont warm to the archaic languge of the KJV, and Greens has been heavily slated for incorect translation, misprinting of strongs numbers, incorect hebrew text etc. I understand the various 'discrepancies' of the modern versions, however what I asked is 'are there any print bibles that display the text of a more modern translation alongside the strongs numbers, hebrew and greek and parsing, the way it appears in a +module (with TVM) in e-sword?' Having a modern translation with this information doesnt detract from allowing me to study the bible the way you mentioned. Use of strongs(and yes I also understand its 'discrepancies' in that it provides limited information leaning heavily on the KJV)along side such a print would allow for this form of study. Do such bible's exist, and under what name would one be able to purchase such a book?

If you want all that, you'd be better off taking the time to learn Biblical Hebrew and Greek. And the time is short.

Lol,quite. But seriously though does such a thing exist, or only within the realms of e-sword?

Old Testament Hebrew manuscript study is still going to be wanting with just an Interlinear too, because they don't include the Massorah notes. The KJV study Bible the Christian scholar E.W. Bullinger put together called The Companion Bible does have many of those Massorah notes from the Massoretic Hebrew texts which Christian David Ginsberg compiled in the late1800's.

http://www.revelationsmessage.co.uk/Christian%20David%20Ginsburg.htm


Christian David Ginsberg was a Hebrew scholar that moved to England and converted to Christ Jesus. He helped E.W. Bullinger compile the Massorah notes within Bullinger's KJV study Bible, The Companion Bible. Orthodox Jewry treated him as a heritic, having left their domain because of his support of OT texts about Christ Jesus.

So with The Companion Bible, you'll get closer to the original meaning of the Hebrew Massoretic text than any side-by-side Interlinear Bible.
