Ramseyer-Northern Bible Society Collection
Search Ramseyer
The Ramseyer-Northern Bible Society Museum Collection, held by the UMD Library, contains seventy-four translations into English of the Bible, or parts of it, made in the twentieth century. These range from those made by official church groups or committees, such as the New Revised Standard Version, or the New Jerusalem Bible, to efforts to put the Scriptures into very colloquial English, as typified by the Cotton Patch Version and the Black Bible Chronicles. Many individual translators have also issued their own version of Scriptures, notably Goodspeed and Moffatt early in the century, and more recently William Paul and Eugene H. Peterson.
