The New Testament: A Translation by David Bentley Hart
4.0
I read the introduction and browsed the Gospels, plus a bit of the Epistles. Hart's scholarship is clearly first rate, and his frequent notes on translations (including alternate options and sometimes why he decided against them) are enlightening.
Most important, Hart's translation of these familiar and beloved scriptures have an energy and immediacy to them. This book might not replace a Christian's favorite translation but is likely to provide new inspiration and understanding.
