First Nations Version: An Indigenous Translation of the New Testament, Softcover

Read the New Testament in, not merely another English translation but, an entirely different culture and context.

The First Nations Version: An Indigenous Translation of the New Testament presents the gospel to you as if its translation came from a Native American tribe, hundreds of years in the past. This intriguing retelling of every book within the New Testament does so as a dynamic equivalence translation; primarily similar to many other English translations of the same type, but different within the space of the Native American culture. A compelling shift in the cultural language allows access into a world that many people do not know and, as such, delivers an insightful and a truly new experience of Christ while retaining the fundamental values of Christianity.
