Looking for Answers about Hendrickson Publishers The Interlinear Hebrew/Greek-English Bible, 4 Volumes?

The Hendrickson set which I have carries the translation by Jay P. Green (Old Testament), and a text from the Trinitarian Bible Society (New Testament). I have not seen an Interlinear featuring the KJV (it may exist, but it will probably be fairly old).

As far as I can tell, the English part is not KJV. I think it says in the introduction that it is a literal translation.

Not that this will help you, but, no, it is not the KJV: it's better! (No antiquated English, fewer interpretations.) More literal (the most literal is in-line with the Hebrew/Greek and the 2nd most literal is in the outer margin. Check out a copy at a bookstore (I've seen the 1-volume version in a couple of Christian bookstores) and you will probably find that you like it (given that you are OK with the interlinear concept in the first place).

The English translation in the side column is "A Literal Translation of the Bible," copyrighted 1985 by Jay Green, Sr. The Greek text was copyrighted in 1976 by the Trinitarian Bible Society, London, England.

I am a King James Version lover also. There are two translations in these volumes. One is the literal translation of the Greek placed directly under each Greek word. And the other is a literal translation on the side, so that we can see the proper word order in English. It is not KJV. But,it does serve to prove how close the KJ translators were in their translation, and why they wrote it as they did, for our undersatanding.It can never take the place of the KJV but is an excellent tool to prove to new version users, the accuracy of the KJ. And how many words and verses have been left out of their versions.

The Interlinear Bible is a direct translation from the Hebrew to English of the Old Testament and from the Greek to English of the New Testament. It correctly translates the original texts without changing certain passages. I use it NEXT to my KJV, not in place of it.

According to the first couple of pages in the 4 volume set, the English translation used in the set is the LITERAL TRANSLATION OF THE BIBLE copyright 1985 by Jay Green Sr.

I have the 2nd edition dated 1985 and printed in 2005. It says it is 'A LITERAL ENGLISH TRANSLATION.' It is definitely not KJV.

This is a Hebrew scripture and KJV is an English translation of the Hebrew scripture. In the Hebrew interlinear, a notation appears under each Hebrew word noting what that word means in English. Sentence structure and grammar are different in Hebrew than in English, so the word sequence will seem odd and choppy if one tries to read the English portion of the text as a narrative. Example: We put our subject at the beginning of a sentence followed by a noun. Hebrew does the opposite. "In the beginning created God..." sounds backwards to an English ear. I use mine often as a source in research and translation projects. I have a separate KJV I use for daily reading.

I would expect so, since each volume in the 4 volume set is about 700 pages.

Not that I've measured it but yes, it is larger (but not large enough for my eyes). I do own the 4-volume set. The single volume typeface is simply too small.

I don't know because I don't know how large or small the text is in the one-volume version. But I can say that the print is easily readable by me. I am 74 and wear trifocals, and all my other Bibles are large print. If I were reading it cover to cover, it might grow a little tedious, but I usually use it only to look up single words or verses, so the size of print is fine for me.

I am not certain of the font size, but the Hebrew, including the vowel points, is quite readable.
