    Hello David. I’m an Australian living in Indonesia. I have friends here in Indonesia working on translations of the Scriptures into local languages. Do you have any Indonesian network? Do you have suggestions for how to incorporate your work into new translation efforts so as not to replicate past errors that deflect readers, hearers, preachers, pastors, commentators etc away from the intentions of the authors?

    How are you going on your work on the Old Testament? I discovered David A Dorsey’s OT Commentary some years ago, but when I contacted him before he died, he had moved on from that effort.
