I really don't use a bible as far as having one in text format or tape or
anything myself. I have looked stuff up on the net and my wife likes her
living bible and a large print bible she has. I got that tirm, unexpurgated
bible from the women who wrote the book intimate issues because they were
talking about the actual translation of the original.
They claimed that some of the translations glossed over or omitted or
changed the meanings of passages and that it was best if you could find an
unexpurgated version of the king James.
From what I understand unexpurgated means clear and uncut or unchanged.
I equate it with the word unabridged. Since buying a reader I have come to
appreciate that tirm.
Even when they claim to put an unabridged version of a book on tape they
still cut things out and I don't know why.
I have read books though, then bought the supposedly unabridged audeo tapes
and have noticed how they will cut out seemingly unimportant pieces of them.
I can only guess for the interest of flow on the tapes.
Anyway, the women who wrote Intimate issues refer a lot to the song of
solomon and they explain passages from it concerning the shulamite and I
think it was durring this that they mentioned an interest in people looking
to an unexpurgated version of king james.
Take Care,
Matt
