So, since I use e-Sword extensively for my Bible studies, I purchased the NKJV for e-Sword and immediately included it in my parallel Bible, next to the KJV. What a delight to discover that is still has the flow and poetry of the original KJV.
My fear had been that it had become too modern. When I did find one, I began using it in my quiet time. So I began searching for a copy of the New King James Version that would be appropriate for me. I went thru several translations and discovered that not only had I not found the translation I was searching for, but that I was forgetting many familiar references.
Reviewed by (Mary Ellen Roit, Groton, CT, US) - I have been reading KJV all my life and have memorized many verses, but when newer word for word translations came out, I began searching for something more current. May God bless His Word as it travels from E-sword out through the words, music, and deeds prompted by using the NKJV. I am grateful for the time and labor spent to put the NKJV at my fingertips. Hopefully there will be more public proclamation of the Scripture as a regular part of our day and also during the corporate church worship hour. Flooding the ear-gates and eye-gates with God’s Word is such a pleasure using the NKJV. What a great blessing! The NKJV so awesome and majestic when read aloud or sung, especially the Psalms and the Prophets. By using this version of the Bible, I can memorize these Scriptural songs and God’s Word. There is a very wonderfully talented Malaysian believer who uses the New King James Version to write and perform Scriptural worship music. This version maintains the dignity and magesty of God’s Word while removing some of the stilted, outdated language of the old King James Version.
