Joe Weaks Posted August 4, 2022 Share Posted August 4, 2022 I also find it weird we don't have it yet. The Accordance team has been clear in the forums about their actions to pursue the text. But on the academic side, I can share that the entities in charge have very much bungled the release of this text. Sporadic in efforts, not consistent in conversation, and quite bad at public information. I'm sure they're working with limited resources. I suspect the Accordance team has been left frustrated waiting as well. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember being surprised that there was virtually no information about the NRSVue at SBL last November—especially since the initial Kindle version was released a month or two later. And I say, virtually, because I did find a cardboard cut out for the NRSV with a QR code over off to the side of the exhibit floor, as if someone had brought it for a booth and then decided not to include it. Weird. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sad. Disappointed. It does appear that in May of this @Mark Allison posted that the publisher had agree to transition their licensing arrangements over to the NSRVue.

Daniel Francis Posted September 7, 2022 Share Posted September 7, 2022 Having bought this translation in another program I use I can say that I enjoy it and especially its cross references. When it pops up in Accordance I will definitely grab it. -dan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobinberea Posted September 8, 2022 Share Posted September 8, 2022 Every few months it seems that I stumble my way into this thread and say: "When, oh when, oh when, will Accordance make the new NRSVue translation available?" Is there any news??? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordan S Posted September 8, 2022 Share Posted September 8, 2022 We will not have an update until after Sept 23rd. The company that handles the file transfers for this Bible told us several weeks ago that they will be out of the office until then. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Lloyd Posted September 14, 2022 Share Posted September 14, 2022 I have my paper version now, but I will certainly look forward to a version for Accordance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Francis Posted October 13, 2022 Share Posted October 13, 2022 Glad it is coming but sad that Accordance is the last of the big three software companies to get it released. -dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobinberea Posted October 13, 2022 Share Posted October 13, 2022 Uh....it's now past Sept 23. Is there any word on when this will become available within Accordance? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Whittington Posted November 3, 2022 Share Posted November 3, 2022 I've been following this threat and was wondering, are there are any updates on the NRSVue release for Accordance? Thanks! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobinberea Posted November 3, 2022 Share Posted November 3, 2022 I emailed Oaktree/Accordance in early October, and the response I got indicated that they hoped to have something available for the upcoming SBL meeting. That would be November 19-22, 2022. It would be lovely to get confirmation of that here! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the Updated Edition was too different from the 1989 NRSV to simply run scripts to apply Strong's Numbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobinberea Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 (edited) Delighted to see this! Purchased and installed! Now I'm embarrassed: I should know, but I don't: what is the function of the "NSRVue parallel texts" option? How does that work?

Additional material including some Esther from the greek, ps 151 and some Daniel. Links in with additional notes in the oxford commentary. copied from the original nrsv translator notes as i haven't upgraded yet: Finally, since the Additions to the Book of Esther are disjointed and quite unintelligible as they stand in most editions of the Apocrypha, we have provided them with their original context by translating the whole of the Greek version of Esther from Robert Hanhart's Göttingen edition (1983).
