Complementary text adds 50% more value to the already-popular download.
Johns Creek, Georgia (September 1, 2021) – Steve Cook, #1 Amazon Best-Selling Audiobook Narrator, actor, and creator of the highly interactive Bible Study tools Witness The Bible and Memo Devo: Memorization as Devotion (both featured on Bible Gateway and elsewhere), has now added a free ebook version to the audio download of New Testament: From The Revised Geneva Translation . The ebook, which adds 50% more value to the download, is exclusively available at 5talentsaudio.com and remains in full 320 kbps audio quality (5 times the industry standard).
“We’re very pleased to be able add the ebook version to this download at no extra cost to our listeners,” says Cook, “Not only does this allow folks to easily follow along with the text while listening, but it saves them 33% off buying both separately.”
The RGT is one of only a handful of Bibles which remain faithful to the Received Text. Most modern Bibles (including the NIV, NASB, NLT, and ESV) are based on the Critical Text, or manuscripts which were largely unused by the Church until the mid-1800’s. Those manuscripts exclude such passages as Mark 16:9-20 and John 7:53-8:11 (The Woman Caught in Adultery) in addition to hundreds of other undocumented omissions and variations from the Received Text.
But the RGT is not merely just another NKJV or Modernized Geneva Bible. It contains many unique renderings based on careful research. Here are just a few:
“And lead us not into trial. But deliver us from the evil one.” ~ Matthew 6:13a
“Glory to God in the High Heaven! Peace on Earth, and to man, according to His good pleasure!” ~ Luke 2:14
“This was He of whom I said, ‘He who comes after me, is in front of me. For He was before me.’” ~ John 1:15b
“Men of Athens! I perceive that in all things you are very fearful of gods.” ~ Acts 17:22b
“I have strength for all things through Christ Who empowers me.” ~ Philippians 4:13
The RGT also preserves the poetry of the Geneva while eliminating confusing 16th century words and punctuation. Plus, it preserves the Geneva’s pioneering versification (i.e. beginning every verse on a new line - which aids tremendously in memorization). This groundbreaking audio version brings all that to life with unique passion and clarity.
“As a small shop, we are grateful for the blessing of being able to offer the absolute highest possible audio fidelity on all of our products with maximum freedom of usage across multiple platforms,” says Cook, “We pray the RGT will be a truly living and active Bible for this generation.”
In addition to his seven #1 Amazon Best-Sellers, Steve Cook’s audiobook credits include Tom Sawyer: A One-Hour Classic, a one-man 32-voice dramatization of A Christmas Carol, and Ken Ham's Ready to Return.
Five Talents Audio exists to activate more Scripture in people's lives.
“My mother and My brothers are those who hear the word of God and do it.” ~Luke 8:21
