Autorenporträt
Richard Francis Weymouth was an eminent Bible scholar and philologist of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Born in Plymouth, England, in 1822, Weymouth devoted his life to the study of biblical texts and the pursuit of making the Scriptures more accessible to the English-speaking public. He held a masterful command of ancient languages and is best known for his translation of the New Testament into modern English, an endeavor that resulted in the widely recognized 'Weymouth New Testament in Modern Speech' which includes works such as 'John'. His translation aimed to capture the original Greek's nuance while rendering it into the clear, contemporary language of his time. Weymouth was an advocate of literal translation techniques, striving to preserve the original authors' intent and stylistic voice. His literary style is characterized by precision and clarity, avoiding paraphrase while ensuring the text remained understandable for the lay reader. Weymouth's translation has been lauded for its scholarly rigor and its contribution to biblical hermeneutics. He passed away in 1902, but his scholarly work continues to influence modern bible studies and English translations of religious texts.
