The Revised Geneva Translation (based on Shakespeare's favorite Bible translation) was borne of an actor’s need to memorize and speak Scripture out loud with specific meanings and inflections. It is a 21st Century update of the very first widely-distributed version of the Holy Bible in English, The Geneva Bible. Just as in all preceding centuries, Biblical text in the 1500’s was meant to be heard and seen, as much as read, because so many of those who received it were illiterate (especially Gentiles) and needed to memorize it and speak it back to each other often in order to facilitate meditation. The RGT was created with that in mind. It is specifically designed to be SPOKEN and HEARD, repeatedly; and is built on the premise that a crucial key to revival in the present can be found in one simple practice from the past: speaking God’s Word back to each other in community. To that end, the RGT strives to preserve the textual cadence and poetry that is so essential to Elizabethan literature, while at the same time eliminating archaic and potentially distracting 16th Century words, phrases, and punctuation (such as employing the proper use of parentheses and quotation marks). It preserves the Geneva Bible’s pioneering poetic style (i.e. beginning every verse on a new line—which aids tremendously in memorization). In scholarly terms, the RGT is a formal or complete equivalency, based on the Byzantine text-type family of manuscripts. At this writing, the RGT is one of only a handful of modern translations of the New Testament to be so. It is our hope that this project will be a living and active Bible for this generation, built for hearing and doing (Matthew 7: 24), and that it will be profitable for teaching, convicting, correcting, and instructing in righteousness (2Timothy 3: 16)… “…that your faith might not be in the wisdom of man, but in the power of God.” ~1Corinthians 2: 5
