Messianic Jewish Literal Translation — New Covenant Scriptures

A word-for-word translation of the New Covenant Scriptures, built on Young's Literal Translation and rebuilt for the Messianic reader. Because it preserves word order, tense and idiom rather than smoothing them into modern English, it reads the way the writers wrote rather than the way we would have.

What makes it different

• Hebrew set into the English text — actual Hebrew lettering with transliteration for names, places and key terms
• Books reordered — arranged first by original audience, then chronologically by when they were written
• Acts synced with Paul — notations show where each letter falls against the events in Acts

That reordering is the part people either love or find disorienting. If you have only ever read the New Covenant in its traditional sequence, this will make the letters land differently.
