Alfred Marshall and Interlinear Resources
Alfred Marshall was a British biblical scholar best known for creating interlinear New Testament editions that present Greek text alongside English translations. His work in this field became foundational for students and pastors seeking to engage with the original language while maintaining ready access to English meaning.
NIV Interlinear Edition
Marshall’s best-known work is The Interlinear Greek-English New Testament, which set the Greek text beside a literal English rendering and the Revised Standard Version in the margin. An interlinear edition pairing Greek with the New International Version (NIV) was later published, drawing on Marshall’s literal English rendering. Marshall’s interlinear works are characterized by literal word-for-word correspondence, making them practical tools for those with basic Greek knowledge seeking to trace the original terms beneath English renderings.
