Hebrew New Testament

06 September 2023  

Approximately nine million people speak Hebrew, of which six million live in Israel and Palestine. The Society continues to revise the Delitzsch Hebrew New Testament (DHNT) so that it is more faithful to the Greek Received Text and in a more understandable form of Hebrew. The team’s work is being checked book by book by the Society’s Senior Editorial Consultant (Linguistics) as they become ready. The entire New Testament is also in process of being field tested by native Hebrew speakers and immigrants who have learnt Hebrew. We are thankful that an audio edition of the revised New Testament is also due to be recorded.

The Society acknowledges the generous financial support for the DHNT revision project received over many years from the Finnish Bible Institute and from the Free Presbyterian Church of Scotland. We are very grateful to three Dutch organisations—GBS, da Costa Foundation, and the Board for Israel—which currently provide substantial financial support to the project.
