Here, he retells nine stories from the Old Testament, and translates Mark's Gospel verse by verse. He ends with the Lord's Prayer-"the prayer that Jesus taught 'is chinas"--which could leave traditionalists writhing in their pews: "You're the Boss, God, and will be for ever, innit?" Soederberg's attempt is clearly not altruistic, a businessman looking for his slice. Hence the easy triviality of his and other versions mentioned. It hardly matters to the Church, they don't believe half of what the Bible teaches. Didn't the main character of the Bible teach: "you received free, give free"? Riding breeches which were worn in the 19th century by those with either wealth or a title. "Rats and mice" (dice) The rhyming slang version of the Bible was written by Mike Coles, an RE teacher in Stepney, and started life as stories he told to his classes. In it, Jesus feeds "five thousand geezers" with "five loaves of Uncle Fred and two Lillian Gish". The Lord's Prayer morphs from "For thine is the kingdom, the power and the glory" to "You're the Boss, God, and will be for ever, innit?"

As in the idea of "so near and yet so far" relating to a busy pub with a throng of waiting customers. "Oily rag" (a fag) Well, that was it. Over the next few weeks and months, all the national papers were interested, as were TV stations, BBC News, ITV News and more.

The publicity for me was just all great fun, and the kids loved it as well, with lessons being filmed, children being interviewed... and then the book was finally published there was even more publicity. I remember being well looked after by Karen Laister from BRF. As I say, I just found the whole time such fun.

Well Bits of It Anyway

But how successful these versions are at doing that is another question. The makers of the Bible Illuminated claim it has increased sales of Bibles by 50% in Sweden - though we are not told over what timescale. A version that could achieve such figures in the UK would be one of the most surprising Bibles yet. Douay-Rheims• Jefferson Bible• King James Only• Septuagint• Vetus Latina• Bible translation• Annotated Bible• I love these alternative presentations - it's just like what Jesus did, He went into the countryside and told people the Good News by using their language and culturally appropriate stories, these new examples are our culture's ways of expression, so in my opinion it is doing what Jesus said 'God and preach the Gospel to all nations.' A horse racing term relating to the "tic tac" signals made by bookmakers.
