Enoch Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 What I would like to have is the ASV (1901) synched to the Hebrew and Greek texts, like the KJV & the NAS95 are, so that when you hover on a word in one, it is highllit in the other (or greylit). The rationale might be that Accordance is a serious study-tool for the Bible, and the ASV is the only serious, studious, literal English translation ever made by committees of scholars (Oxford, Cambridge + some Americans). And to demote it in importance to the NAS95 is unthinkable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helen Brown Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 It's a lot of work to add the Key numbers, and the ASV is not that widely used, despite your ongoing advocacy. Unless there was a lot of demand from other users, I doubt we could consider it worth our while to do it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enoch Posted March 23, 2014 Author Share Posted March 23, 2014 (edited) I figured you thought that way, and I realize it took a lot of work; but I noticed someone else posting a remonstrance about the ASV also somewhere recently, so I thought, may as well ask. As to the ASV, I am going to need to look into adding one's own translation, since I have revised the ASV myself, getting rid of the Elizabethan English while holding on to Elizabethan plural forms with * (as in you*). The NASB original NT revision came out with youp for ye, which never caught on. I can hear Sunday school boys reading the NASB & saying youp.
