With so many English New Testaments on the market, which version is most faithful to the original Greek? How do you choose one that reflects Orthodox perspective and theological content? Holy Apostles Convent and Dormition Skete, (Colorado, U.S.A.) labored six years, with a committee of contributors, to present this fully illustrated Orthodox translation, which has been diligently compared against the original Greek text, the authorized version (1904) of the Patriarchate of Constantinople, and the King James Version.
