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

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.Features:Introduction to the First Nations VersionPrologueGlossary of Biblical TermsBooks of the New Testament Reimagined:Gift from Creator Tells the Good Story (Matthew)War Club Tells the Good Story (Mark)Shining Light Tells the Good Story (Luke)He Shows Goodwill Tells the Good Story (John)The Good Story Continues (Acts)Small Man to the Sacred Family in Village of Iron (Romans)First Letter of Small Man to the Sacred Family in Village of Pleasure (1 Corinthians)Second Letter of Small Man to the Sacred Family in Village of Pleasure (2 Corinthians)Small Man to the Sacred Families in Land of Pale Skins (Galatians)Small Man to the Sacred Family in Village of Desire (Ephesians)Small Man to the Sacred Family in Village of Horses (Philippians)Small Man to the Sacred Family in Village of Giants (Colossians)First Letter of Small Man to the Sacred Family in Village of False Victory (1 Thessalonians)Second Letter of Small Man to the Sacred Family in Village of False Victory (2 Thessalonians)First Letter from Small Man to He Gives Honor (1 Timothy)Second Letter from Small Man to He Gives Honor (2 Timothy)Small Man to Big Man (Titus)Small Man to He Shows Kindness (Philemon)To the People of the Tribes of Wrestles with Creator (Hebrews)He Leads the Way to the Scattered Tribes (James)First Letter from Stands on the Rock (1 Peter)Second Letter from Stands on the Rock (2 Peter)First Letter from He Shows Goodwill (1 John)Second Letter from He Shows Goodwill (2 John)Third Letter from He Shows Goodwill (3 John)Strong of Heart (Jude)Book of the Great Revealing (Revelation)
