The NET Bible translation distinguishes itself by including more than 60,000 translators’ notes in its pages, offering unprecedented transparency as to how it was translated from the Bible’s original languages of Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek.
In the following video, Dr. Darrell Bock, executive director for Cultural Engagement at the DTS Hendricks Center, talks with contributors to the newest release of the NET Bible: Drs. Dorian Coover-Cox, Hall Harris, Bob Chisholm, Daniel Wallace, and senior marketing director Nikki Getman.
Injecting a bit of levity into the discussion at the time stamp of 28:02, was Dr. Daniel Wallace when he voiced the following: “Mark 9:29 says ‘these demons can only be cast out by prayer’ but some readings add ‘and fasting.’ When I do exorcisms I tend hedge my bets and do both. But you can tell just by looking at me, I usually go with the shorter reading.”
