Phenomenal Study !, Jan 25 2010
By Brent - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The New Testament: A New Translation Based on the Oldest Manuscripts (Hardcover)
This book is sure to attract professional religionists who claim doom and gloom, whose interest is to redirect the honest seeker of truth into a belief separate from God and His Son, Christ Jesus.We have followed the instructions of the type of prayer and meditation exacted in this wonderful text, and have found discernment, knowledge and comparable facts easily tracable to the early Christian doctrines and early church services of the apostles.
It was not a professional ministry which served the early Christians, but direct communication with God via His holy spirits (angels)- (see Hebrews 1:14, 1John 4:1-6).
To any seeker of truth, I recommend this book, now almost 80 years in print (in 3 languages), and originally translated from the German.
See [...]
for more info on the ancient Greek manuscripts which taught communication with holy spirits (angel messengers) sent from God.

Review for the GNT (Greber New Testament), July 28 2003
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com

This review is from: The New Testament: A New Translation Based on the Oldest Manuscripts (Hardcover)
Johannes Greber made a translation of the New Testament(NT)in the thirties. He claims that he used Codex Baeza (D), a bilingual text in both Greek and Latin, with some large gaps, and, at the time of Greber's translation, one of the oldest NT texts around. Greber's translation is footnoted in Bruce Metzger's indispensable The Text of the NT: Its Origin, Corruption, and Restoration as one of the translations of Codex D available(see index). What is unique about Greber's translation is that he claims that he was assisted by the spirit world of God in rendering certain passages that reflect more of the original intent of the author. This is nothing new. During the early Christian period inspired writing was a common practice. See especially 4 Ezra 14:21-22, "...send the holy spirit to me and I will write everything that has happened in the world from the beginning, the things that were written in your Law..." Greber's translation is certainly not unique among those who claim to have written or rewritten scripture, ancient or modern. For example, see Leonard Thorn, The New Testament of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ as revised and corrected by the spirits (1861), or the more recent Aquarian Gospel of Jesus or The Urantia Book that lay claim to inspiration, or the Edgar Cayce books on Jesus and his Life. But Greber's translation does stand out among these in enlightenment. There are times when his translation does not reflect the Greek text as we have it, and if one compares the Greek text with his translation there is a tendency to clear up some very sticky Greek passages that conforms more to his spiritistic background. Having been pursuaded many years ago that the OT and NT are spiritistic works, and confirming this in graduate study, Greber's translation, even when it does not follow the Greek precisely, seems to reflect what may have been the original thrust behind certain passages. But, one needs to be hesitant about such statements. If you are mature enough to discern that which is truly from God from that which is simply given free reign to change passages based on alleged claims of inspiration, then the Greber NT will stand out from among all the rest.

WARNING - WARNING - WARNING, Mar 26 2006
By K. Mooney "Take it Literally" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The New Testament: A New Translation Based on the Oldest Manuscripts (Hardcover)
Please do not allow yourself to be deceived! Johannes Greber and his wife consulted the spirit world (a/k/a Satan's demons) for help with understanding and rewording the HOLY scriptures. NEVER should we consult mediums who divine spirits as warned in the Bible. (Leviticus 20:27 and 1 Timothy 4:1 - KJV)The Holy Spirit is the only spirit who can teach us the truths within the Bible. (John 14:26 - KJV)
