A Requiem for the TNIV: RIP

In a previous post I reported on Zondervan’s decision to discontinue publishing the Today’s New International Version in 2011. This version of the Bible has gained little support among evangelicals and its demise is a testimony of the failure of the TNIV to find acceptance among pastors and scholars.

Rick Mansfield at This Lamp has an excellent article on the future of the NIV. His post also includes a requiem for the TNIV, from which the above image was taken.
