The Byzantine Text Version follows an “optimal equivalence” philosophy of translation, employing a literary style that is reminiscent of the Tyndale-King James legacy while flowing smoothly and naturally in modern English. It is translated from the Byzantine (Majority) Greek text edited by Robinson and Pierpont.
The Byzantine Text Version Reader's Edition presents the text without footnotes, chapter numbers, verse numbers, or section headings. There are a limited number of section breaks that match the natural literary divisions of the longer books.
