The RVIC
(Revised Version Improved and Corrected) Bible translation builds on the work
of the English Revised Version, using available manuscript evidence to clarify
readings while preserving a reverent, readable style. Its goal is to present a
reliable text that is suitable for careful Bible study as well as regular
reading.
Where
appropriate, the RVIC pays close attention to the underlying Hebrew and Greek
texts, providing improved renderings and marginal notes where textual issues
are significant. RVIC Bible software is centered on this translation, giving
you convenient access to its text, cross-references, and study helps in a
focused, distraction-free environment.
The RVIC is the
result of J.B. Parkinson's research and compilation efforts. The Herald
Magazine supports this Bible translation. If you would like more information
about the RVIC or a hardcopy version of this translation, please visit their
