Why Is Truth in Translation Essential for Sound Biblical Doctrine?

Truth in translation protects doctrine by bringing readers faithfully to the inspired Hebrew and Greek text without distortion.

Why Should Bible Translators Avoid Theological Bias?

Bible translators must avoid theological bias so readers receive the inspired text, not a doctrinal system disguised as Scripture.

Translation choices shape doctrine by affecting how readers understand Jehovah’s name, the soul, death, ransom, faith, and congregation.

Formal equivalence seeks to preserve the wording of Scripture, while interpretive paraphrase restates meaning with greater human explanation.

Bible translation must submit to the Hebrew and Greek texts because God’s authority rests in the inspired words of Scripture.

Translators should render the divine name Jehovah faithfully because it is part of the inspired Hebrew text and central to worship.

Accurate Bible translation must serve the inspired text, not tradition, religious habit, or inherited doctrinal preference.

A faithful Bible translation accurately renders the inspired Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek text without hiding doctrine or altering meaning.

Psalm 110:1 distinguishes Jehovah from David’s Lord while identifying the Messiah as the exalted King appointed by God.

Faithful Bible translations preserve Jehovah’s inspired words by respecting Hebrew, Aramaic, Greek, and formal equivalence.
