The book has been endorsed by numerous fundamental Baptist leaders, including the following:
“Calvin George has given us an accurate and factual history of our Spanish Bible. This book is a must for those that are sincere in wanting answers about the Reina-Valera 1960.”
—Dr. Ezequiel Salazar, Jr.
Pastor, Montecito Baptist Church
Ontario, California
“By faith we know God has preserved His Word for the Spanish-speaking people of the world. This is a great book for those seeking the truth about the Spanish version of the Bible.”
—Dr. Luis Parada
Spanish Pastor, First Baptist Church
Long Beach, California
“Calvin George has done an outstanding job of putting together the missing pieces in what has become a fascinating historical puzzle. For years I have studied and documented the lives of the original translators of the Spanish Bible. But Calvin George has documented the lives of the revisers of the most widely read and beloved version of God’s Word in Spanish, the 1960 version of the Reina-Valera Bible. After having read his work, I can only say, ‘Great detective work on a most challenging, delicate and sensitive case!’”
—Joaquin Hurtado, Jr.
Pastor, Spanish Fundamental Baptist Church|
South Gate, California
“This book is the product of systematic and scientific investigation and will be useful in clarifying erroneous concepts on the part of English speakers in regard to the Bible in Spanish.”
—Dr. David Acevedo
Pastor, Primera Iglesia Bautista
Brooklyn, New York
“I appreciate the honesty Brother Calvin had in presenting the facts and history concerning the revision of the Reina-Valera 1960. Secondly, I appreciate the simple form in which it was written.”
—Dr. Luis Ramos
Pastor, Iglesia Bíblica Bautista
San Luis Potosí, Mexico
“Calvin George has done an excellent job with this new book he has written. It is scholastically done, and I know it will be a great tool in the defense of the Reina-Valera version. In 1958, I stayed at the Latin American Biblical Seminary (at that time a conservative evangelical institution) during an evangelistic crusade in Costa Rica. It was there that I was introduced to the revised Reina-Valera version that was to be published in 1960. I met some of the men that were involved in the revision, and I remain convinced that they were sound in their doctrine.”
—Dr. Mike Casillas
Pastor, Templo Bíblico Bautista
Bayamón, Puerto Rico
