On Changing the Words

Father Hollywood posted on Weedon's blog about ESV. I thought it was a good point, whether one is talking about improvements to a Bible translation, the catechism, or the hymnal.

He writes:
It has really hurt the cause of biblical literacy when the KJV ceased being a nearly-universal standard in the English-speaking world. As much as I personally like the ESV, I think it's just one more version in the smorgasbord that adds, rather than helps, the problem of a multiplicity of versions.
