Book Overview

The Turkish New Testament Incapable Of Defense: And The True Principles Of Biblical Translation Vindicated is a book written by Ebenezer Henderson in 1825. The book is a critique of the translation of the New Testament into Turkish, which Henderson argues is flawed and incapable of accurately conveying the meaning of the original text. He argues that the translation is not faithful to the principles of biblical translation and that it fails to capture the nuances and subtleties of the original Greek. Henderson provides a detailed analysis of the translation, pointing out specific examples of errors and inconsistencies. He also offers his own suggestions for how the translation could be improved.
