Product Information

This pioneering version has set the pattern for innumerable new translations and revisions of the Bible in other languages as well as in English.

Rich people who see a brother or sister in need, yet close their hearts against them, cannot claim that they love God. The New Testament was first published as ‘Good News for Modern Man’ by the American Bible Society in 1966, and then the whole Bible was printed as Today's English Version (TEV) in 1976. So, considering this passage, God attached special meaning to the rainbow so that every time we see it, we may be reminded of God’s covenant to never destroy everyone and everything on the earth again with a flood. And while it is certainly not a myth or even an allegorical story, there are still lessons that we should learn for our lives today. I do not think I have ever witnessed the appearance of a rainbow where someone did not point up to the sky and say, “Look, a rainbow!Its style avoids the looseness of paraphrase as it translates the deep structures of the text in its original languages. The GNB comes in many editions published by Bible Society and HarperCollins, including most recently a Sports Edition in the year of the 2012 Olympics.

It is intriguing that so many myths explain the rainbow as some sort of supernatural “bridge” (as we noted above), because the most important theme that the rainbow illustrates for us is God’s gracious and grand purpose of redemption (especially in light of his justness and holy judgment) to not only spare Noah and his family but also to give humanity (yet another) chance to start again.
