Bible (Fenton) 11,12,23,24,26: Holy Bible in Modern English, The: 1 Kings-Ezekiel

The 'Holy Bible in Modern English' by Ferrar Fenton, first published in 1903, is a unique translation that rearranges the biblical texts into what Fenton believed to be their correct chronological order, aligning with the Hebrew Bible. Notably, Fenton translates the name of God as 'The Ever-Living' and restores the Psalms to their original musical verse form. The translation is based directly on the original Hebrew, Chaldee, and Greek texts, with Fenton's New Testament following the Greek text of Westcott and Hort. This work is significant for its innovative structure and linguistic approach, making it a distinct version of the Bible.
