Rappin' With Jesus: The Good News According to the Four Brothers (The Black Bible Chronicles)
(as low as $5.30 per copy
on Amazon)
Editorial Review:
This second volume in the Black Bible
Chronicles series is part of the publisher's effort to
"bring the Word of God to our younger generation in
contemporary language." Here, the gospels of Matthew, Mark,
Luke, and John have been changed into black vernacular. A
quote from Matthew is a good example of the translation
process: "Jesus was born in a little town called Bethlehem
'round the time this dude named Herod was king. Three wise
brothers heard 'bout the little brother's birth, too, 'cuz
it had been said a really righteous King of the Jews would
be born. And King Herod was a bit upset about what he was
hearing, especially when he considered himself the only
king!" Depending on clientele, a useful addition to the
religion collection. |
