M. Forster paraphrased the text in contemporary, engaging language which is a pleasure to read. On the one hand the genealogies are abbreviated, on the other hand he refuses to skip the Mark- ending (16:9-20), and he includes the „adulterous woman“ - story (John 7:53 - 8:11), thanking God that it has been preserved. Though paraphrased, this vibrant new interpretation is in some ways more true to the Greek than other experts´ translations.
