The second edition of David Bentley Hart’s critically acclaimed
New Testament translation David Bentley Hart’s
translation of the New Testament, first published in 2017, was
hailed as a “remarkable feat” and as a “strange,
disconcerting, radical version of a strange, disconcerting
manifesto of profoundly radical values.” In this second edition,
which includes a powerful new preface and more than a thousand
changes to the text, Hart’s purpose remains the same: to render
the original Greek texts faithfully, free of doctrine and theology,
awakening readers to the uncanniness that often lies hidden beneath
doctrinal layers. Through his startling translation, with
its raw, unfinished quality, Hart reveals a world conceptually
quite unlike our own. “It was a world,” he writes, “in which
the heavens above were occupied by celestial spiritual potentates
of questionable character, in which angels ruled the nations of the
earth as local gods, in which demons prowled the empty places, . .
. and in which the entire cosmos was for many an eternal divine
order and for many others a darkened prison house.” He challenges
readers to imagine it anew: a God who reigned on high, appearing in
the form of a slave and dying as a criminal, only then to be raised
up and revealed as the Lord of all things.
