| | Revised Standard Version (1946) |
 | | For example, in Genesis 22:18 the RSV renders an ambiguous sentence as "by your descendents shall all the nations of the earth bless themselves" contrary to the interpretation given by the Apostle Paul in Galatians 3:8 and 3:16. | | | The RSV Old Testament was not well received outside of liberal circles, chiefly because the translators often deliberately rendered Old Testament passages in such a way that they were contrary to the interpretations given in the New Testament. | | | The verse most often mentioned by conservatives was Isaiah 7:14, in which the RSV translators rendered the Hebrew word almah as "young woman" instead of "virgin." While this was not a case of a clear violation of the Hebrew (the word must be interpreted according to its context), it was by no means necessary. |

| | The Revised Standard Version |
| | The Apocrypha of the Old Testament, Revised Standard Version, was published in September of 1957, representing an important step toward a version of the Bible that would be acceptable to both Catholics and Protestants. | | | In 1870, Bishop Wilberforce of Winchester submitted a resolution to the Upper House of the Convocation of Canterbury that a committee be appointed to consider a revision of the Bible. | | | A committee was formed, representing the Church of England and nearly all of the evangelical bodies, including the Baptist, Congregational, Methodist, and Presbyterian. |

| | The RSV |
| | Not that the RSV was all bad for it was not. | | | RSV pleases the Unitarians and the self styled Jehovah Witnesses, who believe and teach that the Lord Jesus was a created being, by giving a rendering which can easily be interpreted to mean that Messiah had a beginning. | | | Nevertheless, the RSV reading of Psalm 45:6, by refusing the "thou" which they say is reserved for Deity, eternal or rather for the "eternal Son of God", rob our Lord Jesus of His rightful position. |

| | The Standard Greek Text of Westcott and Hort reads: "_Alhq¢V Qeo_ u__V _n o_toV" (Al_th_s Theou hui_s _n _utos): Truly God’s Son was this." This same refusal to recognize the Deity of the Christ, by refusing to capitalize words referring to him, appears in Hebrews 1:5, and in Psalms 2:7. | | | However the Revised Standard Version substitutes the word consecration for the word sanctification in Jesus prayer for his disciples regarding Pentecost. | | | The Revised Standard Version reads: "Truly this was a son of God", with no capital s for the word Son. |

| | The New Revised Standard Version: A Review |
| | Some conservatives objected to the RSV's use of "thee" and "thou" for God the Father and "you" and "your" for God the Son. | | | Whether this version is ideal for personal Bible reading or not will depend largely on who is the reader, his (or her!) theological views (if any!), and other considerations. | | | Many of the footnotes in the RSV are decidedly helpful to those who want to study the Bible in detail, but the liberal presuppositions of the NCC and its translators should be kept in mind by the Bible-believing reader. |

| | , in the original text of the RSV, the centurion says, "Truly this was a son of God." In the 1962 edition this was changed to read, "the son of God," with the rendering "a son of God" placed in a footnote. | | | The philosophy of translation of the RSV is that it will not read New Testament theology back into the Old Testament writings, but rather will let the OT say exactly what it says and leave the interpretation to others (a policy it should have followed more consistently, as was previously noted). | | | It's not the virgin birth the RSV is denying, it's the notion that the Hebrew word "almah" MUST be rendered "virgin" in order to sustain a particular doctrine. |
