Lately I observed that there are some portions of the bible that I can't really say that I'm conversant with, especially those parts that weren't in the SSCE curricula those days in high school. Now, I want to start swotting up on some of those parts but there is a snag -- The version of the bible to use given that some authors have in the course of translating same made it lose the original and intended meaning. So I would want you to recommend a good version to your mind. Thanks... |

Good afternoon young sir, When I did my SSCE back in '98 I made use of Goodnews bible and made a B3. So if you ask me I will say there are a lot of good versions out there but if it is to recommend, I will say Goodnews and New Jerusalem Bible. But since you are preparing for SSCE, I believe they must have recommended texts. Why not check the syllabus and make use of the bible recommended? Thank you! |
