Since Rood preaches only directly from the scriptures, we can see wherein your motivation lies. (pun intended)

>>Since Rood preaches only directly from the scriptures,<<

At least his version right? We do need to be forthright and let the readers understand that he uses his own MIV? He wouldn't want us to not give him credit would he? He said himself that he has his own translation.

From Rood: ""...in 1762 the KJV was revised for the fifth time to include italicized words which denote most times when words were added to the text without corresponding verbiage in the original Hebrew or Greek. That was an invaluable addition to their original work, and I use the same protocol when I translate the Scriptures. My translation is referred to as the MIV or the Marine Infantry Version, as I began my serious study of Scripture during my time of serving with the United States Marine Corps."

He even changes it from the original to " make it more understandable" right?
