  gb recent presents new book "based ezekiel" - pure worship restored.this book also provide into jw-borg site and jw-lib too, but only english.as examle, spanish - it`s second largest language into us and america continents, but has no translated into it.do you have any idea why this could happen?

  they hide something, or just did not have time to translate (but previously published in all major languages at the same time).

  There isn't any official explanation about the fact that it's English only, but translating the Pure Worship book into other languages is not a zero-priority, because evidently it will be studied after the Jesus--The Way book, which is due to 2021 (I don't remember the exact date, but I saw it in a letter somewhere).

  Spanish and German editions of the Silver Sword are planned for a 2019 release, so obviously the Pure Worship book we be released after that in those languages.

  @Earnest: all the Bible books, even those without the study notes have been added to the Study Bible just to make them "available" and to be able to set the Study Bible as the default Bible translation on JW.org. But the study notes for the entire Bible will be released in 10-15 years or so.

  So yes, Appendixes C are only in the Study Bible. The English version of the Study Bible has only the first five books of the Greek Scriptures released (the four Gospels and Acts), and evidently the study notes for further books will be released in due time when the given Bible books will be considered for weekly Bible reading in the midweek meeting. So by end of the year, Romans will be also released. Narkissos: you are right about the shades of blue (on the website; shades of purple in the JW Library app) refering to the categories of books. Indeed, books having the gem icon do have the study notes. Books without the gem icon basically are a clone of the 2013 NWT.

  Even if the online version of Kingdom Interlinear has not visual elements (like no other pre-2013 publication, other than the "See the Good Land" brochure), it does have the text from cover to cover, including front and end sheets, appendixes and all the other pages apart from the actual Bible books. You can access specific pages like any other publication reference, using int as the publication mnemonic symbol.

  NWT from Greek/Hebrew into other languages?

  by Counter-Watchtower in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  does jw org claim to have translated the nwt into other languages from greek/hebrew?

  because if they did claim that they would have to have biblical scholars in biblical greek/hebrew from every language, that would be a ton of ppl!

  and take a lot of time!.

  There is a modern Greek edition of the New World Translation, and it was released in 1998.as Η Αγία Γραφή—Μετάφραση Νέου Κόσμου (He Hagía Graphé--Metáphrase Néou Kósmou). There are consistent differences between ancient Greek and modern Greek. Probably the most visually evident is that ancient Greek uses polytonic orthography, while modern Greek uses monotonic orthography. Pronunciation also differs significantly, and vocabulary too. You may wish to compare the Greek of the Kingdom Interlinear Translation with the New Testament portion of the New World Translation in Greek to see the difference for yourself.

  The vernacular versions of the New World Translations are based on the English edition, but translators have access to an internal knowledge base and reference library where they can look up Hebrew-English and Greek-English interlinears to better understand the original texts.

  New bible story book huh? I always thought they could do with an update. Or put those comic books into one big book. Maybe that's what they're doing.

  Anywhere where we can download it?

  The book is not a collection of comic book stories, it features completely new artwork. A user on JWtalk who knows how to dig into JW.org's metadata on its CMS posted some of the pictures, but they were subsequently removed by the moderators out of respect for the ones preparing the spiritual food.

  The book is not yet downloadable on JW.org, but will be next week, shortly before the start of the first convention on Friday. As of now, the book's download link shows 60 languages, but files attached.

  When the files will be downloadable, you can access them via this link: https://www.jw.org/download/?fileformat=PDF&pub=lfb. If you prefer other format than PDF, replace the fileformat parameter to EPUB, JWPUB or MP3.
