The Holman Christian Standard Bible is the most modern English translation of the Bible, and the first to take advantage of computer technology.
The Southern Baptist Convention reportedly provided $10 million in funding for this new translation, to "safeguard the Scriptures from trends toward cultural pluralism, political correctness and drifting theology."[1] Critics considered this project to be a "preemptive strike against a competitor," the "'inclusive' recasting of the NIV called Today's New International Version," which "was savaged by conservative Southern Baptists and other sticklers on this issue but endorsed by prominent evangelicals."[1]
This is the primary new translation of the 21st century.[2]
