Bible Translations Into Ukrainian
The known history of Bible translation into Ukrainian began in the 16th century with Peresopnytsia Gospels, which included only four Gospels of the New Testament. However, the first mention of the already available translations of the Gospels and the Psalms into Old East Slavic language dates back to the stay of Saints Cyril and Methodius in Chersonesos in 860 or 861. Even then, these translations were at their disposal, that is, before the Moravian mission of Cyril and Methodius. Thus, translations began to spread in the territories of modern Ukraine, which was later reflected in translations into Ukrainian. Later in 17th-19th centuries, when the Ukrainian territory was a part of the Russian Empire, several other translations were made secretly because of the Russian Government restrictions on Ukrainian language. At present there are several translations of Holy Scripture into Ukrainian: * Pentateuch translated by P. A. Kulisch, published in Lemberg (Lviv) * Panteleimon Kulis ...

British And Foreign Bible Society
The British and Foreign Bible Society, often known in England and Wales as simply the Bible Society, is a non-denominational Christian Bible society with charity status whose purpose is to make the Bible available throughout the world. The Society was formed on 7 March 1804 by a group of people including William Wilberforce and Thomas Charles to encourage the "wider circulation and use" of the Scriptures. History The British and Foreign Bible Society dates back to 1804 when a group of Christians, associated with the Religious Tract Society, sought to address the problem of a lack of affordable Bibles in Welsh for Welsh-speaking Christians. Many young girls had walked long distances to Thomas Charles to get copies of the Bible. Later the story was told of one of them – a young girl called Mary Jones who walked over 20 miles to get a Bible in Bala, Gwynedd. BFBS was not the first Bible Society in the world. The first organisation in Britain to be called "The Bible Society ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Bible Translations Into Slavic Languages

He published at Prague, 1517–19, twenty-two Old Testament books in ''Old Belarusian language'', in the preparation of which he was greatly influenced by the Bohemian Bible of 1506.

New World Translation Of The Holy Scriptures
The New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures (NWT) is a translation of the Bible published by the Watch Tower Bible and Tract Society; it is used and distributed by Jehovah's Witnesses. The New Testament portion was released first, in 1950, as ''The New World Translation of the Christian Greek Scriptures'', with the complete New World Translation of the Bible released in 1961. It is not the first Bible to be published by the Watch Tower Society, but it is its first ''original translation'' of ancient Biblical Hebrew, Koine Greek, and Old Aramaic biblical texts. Although commentators have said a scholarly effort went into the translation, critics have described it as " biased". History Until the release of the ''New World Translation'', Jehovah's Witnesses in English-speaking countries primarily used the ''King James Version''. According to the publishers, one of the main reasons for producing a new translation was that most Bible versions in common use, including the ''Au ...
