New Versi To Exhibi" On Tuesday, September 30, fif teen years of labor will culminate in one of the major events of the twentieth century with the publi eation of the Revised Standard version of the. Bible. With that publication the people of America will once again have "The Word of Life in Living Language." There will be an exhibit in con nection with the publication of the new Bible in the lobby of Maxcy College and copies of it will be available in the University Book Store and the downtown book stores on September 30. It has al ready been adopted as the text book in Bible courses in the De partment of Bible and Religion at the university. The Bible with which most are familiar was first published 341 years ago in 1611. A number of individuals have made translations of the Bible but the only American Revision was made 51 years ago and has never been widely popular because its language was fre quently awkward and stilted. With the publication of the Re vised Standard Version on Septem ber 30 Americans will have a Bible in the language that they speak every day, a Bible that can do for midcentury America what the King James Version did for 17th century England. In 1930 the International Coun cil of Religious Education, repre senting forty Protestant denomi nations of the United States and Canada realized the need for a new accurate and readable version of the Bible, and appointed a com mittee of representatives from all of these denominations to under take the task. The committee em ployed the services of thirty-two of the Lop Biblical scholars of this generation. After years of toil on the part of this group the New Testament was published in 1046 and sold a million copies the first year. The nld Testament was a much larger assignment and work was not completed on it until this year. Now the entire Bible is in the hands of the printers and will he available to the public on Sep tember 30. One million copies will he produced in this first printing.
