The FarAboveAll Bible Translation

Based on the Robinson-Pierpont Byzantine Textform 2005 edition of the New Testament
and the Westminster Leningrad Codex (WLC) of the Old Testament / Tanakh

Showing Textual Variations of the Received Text and Greek Orthodox Church Patriarchal Text of 1904

The simplest way to read the documents is to select the PDF editions where available. For the Old Testament / Tanakh, the Hebrew is in HTML/Unicode and should render well on a modern computer. For the New Testament, there is an all-in-one document in HTML/Unicode which should render well on a modern computer (derived from the native font file). The files are all less than 2.5 MB in size unless otherwise indicated. For more details, see the notes below.

Introduction and Information

These documents are fairly stable, except that the Introduction to the OT is in progress and the Introduction to the NT may be simplified.

Extras

New Testament Concordance The concordance is rather basic, as it is generated by a program in a simple way. See description at the head of the document.
Old Testament / Tanakh Concordance The concordance is rather basic, as it is generated by a program in a simple way. See description at the head of the document.
OT - NT Cross references in WLC order.
Best viewed in landscape mode with the GGTEphesian font installed (see fonts page).
Be aware that if an OT verse is quoted in several NT places, or an NT verse is quoted in several OT verses, any one OT-NT pair may only show a partial correspondence. Quotations are sometimes adapted somewhat, or are better regarded as allusions, especially in the Book of Revelation.
NT - OT Cross references in AV order.
Best viewed in landscape mode with the GGTEphesian font installed (see fonts page).
See additional comments above.
Parallel verses of the OT / Tanakh, side by side. Best viewed in landscape mode.
Be aware that if verse A is parallel to verse B, and verse B is parallel to verse C, it does not necessarily follow that verse A is parallel to verse C (non-transitivity), because the parallelisms may be based on different parts of verse B. These are largely taken from Deuterographs by R. B. Girdlestone.
