Ambiguity Where Clarity Matters: Dealing with Justification Expressions in the Ingiloy Translation of Romans 4

How do you help a translator whose language has only one word for “truth” and “righteousness” as he translates Romans 4? Come hear Dr. Troy Manning, the Chief Language Consultant of Bibles International (BI), explain how you can use your knowledge of Greek to translate the New Testament for a specific people group in a Muslim-controlled country in Eurasia.

Troy will also share his journey of how he became an international Bible translation consultant, how he found a Russian-speaking Ukrainian to be his wife and interpreter, and how he got connected to a people group who had been praying for 12 years that God would send someone to help them translate the Bible into their language.
