Kumuyi authors Yoruba Bible

The General Superintendent of the Deeper Christian Life Ministry, Pastor William Kumuyi, has authored a Yoruba Bible concordance, called Bibeli Mimo Atoka.

The cleric, with the support of a team of Yoruba scholars, reportedly spent 15 years on the project, which was published by the Bible Society of Nigeria.

According to a broadcast by the church, the new scripture is “one of the most reliable and readable Bibles” for personal study and teaching.

“Bibeli Mimo Atoka offers the most literally accurate translation from the original while keeping the integrity of the Bible.

“This new version takes care of changes that have occurred over time in the meaning of some expressions found in ancient Yoruba and makes the Bible more comprehensible and relevant to today’s readers,” the church added.
