Original Bible Project
The Original Bible Project is a project to produce a re-ordered new translation of the Bible into English led by James Tabor. The Project is a non-profit organisation. The translation is expected to eventually be published under the name Transparent English Bible (TEB). By mid-2024, the project had published two books, one on the book of Genesis and one looking at selections of Bible writings.
The project was advertised as early as 1992 in the back of the Bible Review of the Biblical Archaeology Society, and an article Genesis Translation of the Transparent English Bible appeared in the liberal arts magazine of Augustana College in 2006. It has also been mentioned in book jacket biographies of Dr. Tabor. The Project's aim is to produce a new Bible version, the Transparent English Bible (TEB).
The initial translations of the project have already been cited in some non-scholarly works.
