Synopsis

The New Testament with the Joseph Smith Translation was originally created for a CES New Testament Institute course at Harvard University. This valuable reference and study aide integrates all textual changes made by the Prophet Joseph Smith from Matthew through Revelation and presents the Four Gospels in chronological harmony and parallel columns. All JST changes are presented in bold italics and clearly integrated in full context. All King James text remains, with replaced text crossed out and available so that the reader can easily compare the changes. The unique format provides many advantages, including:
Easy and immediate access to the entire JST in the New Testament
Quick and easy-to-see comparison of harmonized King James Version and Joseph Smith Translation
Elimination of searching several texts to find the JST text
Parallel chronological harmony of Matthew, Mark, Luke, John and Joseph Smith at a glance

Since its first publication in 1992, the response has been exceptionally positive from religion instructors and students at BYU and CES Institutes. Reviewers consistently agree that his book provides a valuable and rewarding way to study the New Testament and is a ''definite must for serious gospel students.'' The text contains no commentary, only scripture and is both event- and verse-indexed for easy reference. The book is soft-bound (to lie flat) with a sewn binding like a hardback book (for durability). This book is a valuable companion text to The Old Testament with the Joseph Smith Translation.

About this title

Review:

Love the set up. You can read all versions of each story and situation in the New Testament, side by side. Also, the JS Translation is integrated with italics and his deletions left in but crossed through with a single line (so they are still readable). Really has been my best study tool for the New Testament. It has helped me get the most understanding of Christ and his teachings. --Daynia

This is hands down the best way to read the New Testament. It is harmonized by column and all the JST's are in the text - outstanding!! --Karen
