 poor translation with worse footnotes May 31, 2007
11 out of 17 found this review helpful
The NAB is a poor translation. The language is bland, with far too much inclusive language. The footnotes are heterodox, with far too much reliance on the "historical-critical" method. The RSV is a much better translation, which also keeps the footnotes to a minimum. I recommend that avoidance of the NAB. Buy an RSV instead if you are looking for an easy-to-read yet literal translation of the Bible.
