Description
*** Pre-Orders Have Begun for Rick Renner’s First Installment of the RIV!
What Is the RIV?
The Renner Interpretive Version of the New Testament is an expanded, interpretive version based on Rick Renner’s exposition of the original language of the New Testament. It’s not a word-for-word translation, but a conceptual interpretation that draws upon concepts in the Greek language in a way that gives readers a broader comprehension of the Scriptures. By extracting imagery presented in the Greek and conveying it to readers using contemporary speech, Rick helps draw lovers of the Word into a deeper study of God’s message to His people for all time.
