180 Seiten, Taschenbuch

Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

In the light of various controversies about Bible translation, Wycliffe Global Alliance and SIL International approached the World Evangelical Alliance (WEA) in 2012 to independently review their best practice in the translation of “God the Father” and the “Son of God“ – with special consideration for languages used in Muslim majority countries. The WEA formed an independent “WEA Global Review Panel”, which published a report with recommendations to WEA in 2013 and a further document “Divine Familial Terms Translation Procedures” in 2016. This volume gathers the different recommendations, procedures and some WEA press releases. All texts speak for themselves as result of an expert panel, they do not necessarily represent the views of WEA, WEA’s Theological Commission or of any organization the experts are connected to.
