from Found in Translation Hosted by Brandon Vélez-Johnson & Brandon Rhodes | Liberation Theology & Biblical Studies

Brandon and Brandon are joined by Terry Wildman, the lead editor of the First Nations Version of the New Testament and co-founder of Rain Ministries. The First Nations Version is a dynamic equivalence translation that captures the simplicity, clarity, and beauty of Native storytellers in English, while remaining faithful to the original language of the New Testament. They discuss the damaging legacy of settler translation decisions among First Nations persons, what it is like to translate a text for cultures of oral storytelling, and what Bible words were the most gratifying to fine-tune in their work.
