Modern Literal Version New Testament

The Modern Literal Version New Testament is a long-running literal rendering of the New Testament, developed and revised throughout the internet era, a period in which digital distribution allowed translation projects to circulate and be updated outside conventional publishing channels. Its scope is limited to the New Testament, and it is translated from Greek, drawing on majority and critical Greek resources that vary by edition. The translation philosophy is highly literal, aligning it with a broader tradition of formal-equivalence English versions that seek to mirror the wording and structure of the source text rather than paraphrase it. The work is best categorized as a fresh translation subject to ongoing revision rather than a revision of an earlier English Bible. Because version changes are frequent, readers and researchers should cite the exact edition date when describing its wording, since quotations may not match other releases.
