Bible Study Project Observation Template(2)(1) (complete Updated spring )

Name: Jazmyne Griffith BIBLE STUDY PROJECT: OBSERVATION TEMPLATE Passage: Acts 9:36-43 A. I have read Acts 9:36-43 in both a formal translation (KJV, NKJV, NASB, ESV, or CSB) and a functional translation (NIV, NLT, or NCV). Highlight the correct answer. Please use the translation provided in your digital library or found at B o Yes o No B. Having read the passage in both formal and functional translation, list at least 2 similarities and 3 differences between the way both translations cover this story. You may list as many similarities and differences that you find as long as you meet the minimum amount. 1. Similarity – Both translations specifically list Joppa as the city where Tabitha lives. 2. Similarity – Both translations say that Peter kneeled beside her and prayed. 3. Difference – The NIV says her name is Tabitha, but it is Dorcas in Greek. The KJV doesn’t specifically list the language from which it (Tabitha) is translated. 4. Difference – In the NIV, it quotes the two men as saying, “Please come at once!” The KJV speaks a general statement saying that they ‘[desired] him that he would not delay to come to them.’ 5. Difference - When Tabitha was risen, the KJV says Peter called the saints and widows. The ESV says he called believers and especially widows.
