“Understand this, my dear brothers and sisters: You must all be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to get angry.” – James 1:19 (NIV)
It has been said that to love well is to listen well. Listening well can be depicted through the traditional Chinese character for “listen, hear, obey” as described below.
China’s favourite bible
The Chinese Union Version (CUV) Bible which was first published on 22 April 1919, over 101 years ago remains China’s favourite Bible. In today’s #SaturdayGoodRead article which is authored by an EAST Alumna Cynthia Oh (MDiv in Intercultural Studies, 2016), the importance of this version of the Bible and the hard work by many which brought about its completion is illuminated.
Here is a brief extract from the article,
Spanning three decades, it survived major political events such as the Boxer Rebellion, collapse of the Chinese empire and World War I.
The CUV version contributed remarkably to the tremendous growth of the Chinese Church
The translation work involved 16 missionary Bible translators of different nationalities, denominations and mission societies, an even higher number of Chinese translators and assistants, and the crucial support of the Bible Societies.
