The Bible Society considers it a sacred trust to share the life-changing Word of God with everyone. Bible Society is a Christian non-profit organization dedicated to serving the scriptural needs of churches, organizations, and individuals. Our specific mission is to provide the Holy Scriptures to every man, women, and child in a language and form each can easily understand and at a price each can easily afford.
Bible Society has been instrumental in completing the joint Good News Arabic (GNA) translation in 1993. Up till then, the two widely used Arabic translations were the Van Dyke & Al-Boustani (1865) and the Jesuit translation (1880), widely used among Catholic churches. Work on the GNA began in the sixties under the supervision of Bible Society and in collaboration with several scholars of the original languages and Arabic translators to complete the whole Bible. We have also presented the Scriptures in many other formats, including videos and tapes, and soon on CD-ROMS and an interactive site on the World Wide Web.
