The Watchtower Bible and Tract Society refused to give the names and credentials of their translating committee of their version of the Bible entitled, The New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures, published in 1950. The men who comprised the Translation Committee had no adequate schooling or background to function as credible Bible translators. They were: Frederick W. Franz, Nathan H. Knorr, Albert D. Schroeder, Milton Henschel and George D. Gangas. Biblical translator, Dr. Edgar J. Goodspeed, could not recommend this translation and said its grammar is regrettable. This video features Dr. Sam Reed, who holds a Ph.D. in Biblical Languages, and is joined by Christian Answers Director Larry Wessels and Pastor Jackson Boyett of Dayspring Fellowship in Austin, Texas. Dr. Reed, who had never seen the NWT until this broadcast, evaluates key Bible texts of the Jehovah's Witness translation based on the original New Testament. less
