The Analytical-Literal Translation: Third Edition (ALT3) is the most accurate translation of the New Testament available. Its name reflects its main features. "e;Literal"e; refers to ALT3 being a word for word translation. All words in the original Greek text are translated. The original grammar is retained as much as possible. Words added for clarity are bracketed. "e;Analytical"e; refers to the detailed "e;analysis"e; done on the grammar of the text, which is then translated in a way that brings out "e;nuances"e; often missed in other translations. "e;Analytical"e; also refers to aids included within the text which enable the reader to "e;analyze"e; and understand the text. ALT3 is based on the most up-to-date and accurate Greek Text, the Byzantine Majority Text: Second Edition.
