The New Life Version
The New Life Version of the Bible had its beginnings in the 1960s when
missionaries to the Canadian Arctic, Gleason and Kathryn Ledyard, saw the
need for an English Bible that was accurate and easy to read. In 1969 the
New Life Version of the New Testament was completed, with a 850-word
vocabulary.
The Ledyards developed a unique phraseology which took difficult
biblical words and broke them down into simple meaningful easy-to-read
phrases. This gives the New Life Version the quality of a built-in
dictionary. Sentences and paragraphs are kept short, with headings
summarizing their content. All pronouns referring to deity are
capitalized. Even children in the earlier grades can read this English
version of the Bible with understanding. And many adults find themselves
startled into new insights by the blunt simplicity of the language. In
1986 the Old Testament was completed with only a few new words, unique to
the Old Testament, added to the basic 850-word vocabulary.
