The Poetic Truth
The First Dramatic, New Bible Translation in Three Generations!
A quick overview of The Poetic Bible by Mario Nitti, (July 2024, retail $19.95)
Imagine experiencing the New Testament in a new light — as a poetic and eternal love song. History may not repeat, but in this dynamic, page-turning rendition of the Truth, it perfectly rhymes.
Not since the release of The Amplified Bible back in 1965 has there been an entirely new approach to translating the Scripture into such a beautiful work of literary art.
According to author Mario Nitti, “This version is not just a retelling of the sacred texts; it is an artistic and literary endeavor designed to captivate your heart, engage your mind, and elevate your spirit. The creation of this New Testament was a meticulous and inspired process. The aim was to preserve the profound truths and theological depth while presenting them in a fresh and enchanting poetic form.”
As a Christian for over a half century I believe The Poetic Bible (TPB) is a spiritual game-changer. Why?
The applications of this Bible are nearly endless — ranging from converting Scripture to songs to engaging and encouraging young poets to enlivening Bible study groups of any age.
No doubt fundamentalist critics will emerge, but the Spirit of Truth within this translation will, as it always has, set millions of hearts free, kindling a fresh fire for sharing the Gospel.
When the power of creative storytelling merges with the power of Scripture the result is a powerful new connection of heart, mind and soul. Thank you Mario Nitti for bravely and boldly launching into this labor of love!
I will begin a Poetic Bible study of the book of John starting Tuesday, August 27, 2024 at 11–11:30am EST. We will read it, as well as other translations, and discuss how to put the Truth into daily practice. If interested in participating please email ideaman@myideafactory.net for the link.
I will write a more detailed book review soon. Meanwhile, you can read a sample, the book of Matthew, at the Amazon Kindle order page. Go!
