Commentary

The Modern English Version (MEV) preface says:

“The Modern English Version is a translation of the Textus Receptus and the Jacob ben Hayyim edition of the Masoretic Text, using the King James Version as the base manuscript. The Committee on Bible Translation adhered to the principle of formal equivalence, the meaning of which is to be as literal as proper English syntax and grammar will allow. At times it is impossible to translate every word or thought from Greek into English with proper syntax or a modern English vernacular. In such instances, it is important to realize certain words may go untranslated. For example, the Semitism in Matthew 11:4 transliterated as, “kai apokritheis Ho Iesous eipen autois,” is translated in the King James Version as “Jesus answered and said unto them.” This is not an effective rendition in the modern English vernacular due to the redundant speech, nor is it translated literally in the King James Version. So, to translate the Greek into the modern English vernacular, the phrase is translated as “Jesus answered them.” Additionally, the original translators of the King James Version did not translate the Greek “Ho,” translated as “the,” nor did they translate “apokritheis” literally as “ ‘answering.” Their goal was to use proper English syntax in the modern English vernacular of their day. Yet, by leaving certain terms untranslated in this update, it may appear that a Greek text other than the Textus Receptus may have been used. Such is not the case. A different English rendering is being used to re-translate the Textus Receptus while updating the King James Version manuscript.”

This clearly demonstrates the departure from the King James readings.

MEV Jesus answered them, “Go and tell John what you hear and see:
KJV Jesus answered and said unto them, Go and shew John again those things which ye do hear and see:

καὶ ἀποκριθεὶς ὁ Ἰησοῦς εἶπεν αὐτοῖς, is literally “and answering the Jesus said to them” -

καὶ - and
ἀποκριθεὶς - answering
ὁ - the
Ἰησοῦς - Jesus
εἶπεν - said
αὐτοῖς - to them

But the MEV only has “Jesus answered them” omitting the words “said to” which is a clear departure from the Textus Receptus and King James Version.

That they would use this in their preface as an example shows the incompetence of the MEV translators, who do not know the basics of the Greek language.
