Considering the stance that this translation will take, it's going to be very exciting to get more input and the official COE stamp on ways in which some passages can be translated as well which breaks with Greek tradition. Things like,
-Gowra in Matthew 1:16
-Rope/camel in Matthew 19:23
-The leper/potter issue in Matthew 26:6
-The famous words of Matthew 27:46 (spare or forsake?)
-Slave/debt in John 8:33
-Faithful one/eunuch in Acts 8:27
etc.
And then, just because I'm a nerd for stuff like this, to see it all bound nicely just the way the Word of God should be. Speaking of the Orthodox Study Bible, the red genuine leather one was very beautiful and since it's been out of print, in very high demand from what I hear. Anyway, that's another story.
