The New Testament - A Lawyer’s Translation from the Original Greek

Malcolm Bishop KC, a prominent British lawyer (currently the Lord Chief Justice and President of the Land Court of the Kingdom of Tonga), has used his skills as an advocate to produce an entirely fresh translation of the original Greek New Testament into clear, readable English.
