A translation is when you replace each word in the original language with an exact equivalent in the target language. It is possible to translate between Greek and Hebrew, but not English. English requires capital letters at the start of each sentence and other places and punctuation in certain places.  Similarly, the Bible has been translated into different languages. One of those most difficult language translation work was done here in India.

This episode is all about the techniques and theories followed by the early linguistic scholars who mastered the skill of Bible translation from a Source language to the target translation language. Especially in a country like India where there are more than 1652 languages spoken.  Also how the early missionaries and scholars learned the language classifications in India just to do the translation work. This podcast episode sheds light on the translation part of the Bible, which seems a very simple job to do, but actually a time consuming focused work.

This episode is a discussion about the Bible manuscripts/ Codex. Bible manuscripts when compared to other ancient writings, stand-alone as the best-preserved literary works of all antiquity. There are thousands of existing Old Testament manuscripts and fragments copied throughout the Middle East, Mediterranean and European regions that agree phenomenally with each other. In addition, these texts substantially agree with the Septuagint version of the Old Testament, which was translated from Hebrew to Greek sometime during the 3rd century BC. The Dead Sea Scrolls, discovered in Israel in the 1940s and '50s, also provide astounding evidence for the reliability of the ancient transmission of the Jewish Scriptures (Old Testament) in the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd centuries BC.
