Is there a bible translation comparable to the NRSV in German? What German translation is most used by academics and includes the apocrypha?
I think both the Luther- (protestant) and the Einheitsübersetzung (catholic) will do for academic use, both contain the apocrypha.
I agree with NB.Mick.
For the Lutherbibel 2017 (i.e. the latest edition) the translation of the apocrypha has been completely redone on the basis of the Greek text. In earlier editions (like the Lutherbibel 1984) the book of Tobit was translated from the latin text of the Vulgate.
The Einheitsübersetzung is catholic but I believe that the New Testament and the Psalms can also be considered as an ecumenical text.
Great. AI gave me the same answer. 😊 I already have the Einheitsübersetzung from the Verbum Biblicum package I bought. I also already have the Lutherbibel 2017 on my wishlist.
Thanks!

I found 4 volumes of Ancient Literature for New Testament Studies (Permanent License) in my library, "Last Updated" 2025-12-2, and I haven't figured out why. It isn't in my order history, nor did I find it via a (nonexhaustive) survey of libraries that I've purchased over the years. The individual volumes are currently…
Are the mainstream denominations of Christian churches misleading followers?
I have a couple of books that always crash Logos. I read the books a while ago and created Notes while reading, but if I try to go to the Note anchors in the books in question, Logos crashes. Same if I try to open them in the Library. Is there anything I can do to fix this?
As per the title, when I turn on Use Internet I can select to not download new books but not able to prevent Logos from sending my notes and highlights to their server. In order to download new books it appears I must sync my private data with their server which is a bummer. Is this even possible to have these stored ONLY…
