An Opening: NLT-CE from Tyndale/Asian Trading Corporation

This blog is going to go quiet for a week or so starting today with the birth of our third child, which is scheduled for tomorrow.  However, I wanted to post some pictures of the NLT-CE that was kindly sent to me by the fine people at the Asian Trading Corporation, based out of India.  They sent me three versions of their brand new NLT-CE's for review, including the compact, bonded leather, and faux leather versions.  Let me just say, I received these editions of the NLT-CE less than a week after contacting ATC.  Their customer service was excellent and very gracious.  They will ship internationally, including the US and Canada.  So, they are highly recommended if you can't wait until April for the Tyndale edition to come out.  (Make sure to get the Tyndale edition too when it is published!)

In the coming weeks, when I get a little more time, I will provide a more thorough review.  Until then, here are some photos for you to consider.  If you have any specific translational questions, I'll do my best to answer them.  Until then......

    Second, now I have to go to confession...your pix have caused me to covet my neighbor's leather/faux leather NLT-CEs! Oh my God, I am heartily sorry....

    Thanks for the post.

    I have the original NLB–CE from 2001 edition on my shelf. The Apocrypha are copyrighted in this year. Now, which ⓒ -date does the Indian edition bear for the Apocrypha (if any)?
    Thanks for responding! birnbaum from Germany
