The NET Bible ® ( Acronym for '''New English Translation''') is a free, On-line English Translation of the Bible , sponsored by the Biblical Studies Foundation (aka Bible.org ). The New English Translation, like the NIV , is a completely new translation of the Bible and not an update or revision of an older one like the RSV . The translation and extensive notes were undertaken by twenty biblical . The translation project originally started as an attempt to provide a digital version of a modern translation over the Internet and on CD-ROM without cost for the user. The translation is most notable for its lengthy Footnote s (which unlike typical study Bibles undertake to explain the rationale for the translation), its open translation process, its availability on the Internet (both during its beta process and in its final form), and its open copyright permitting free distribution. The First Edition, available in November 2005 on the tenth anniversary of the inception of the project, may be downloaded free of charge and is also available in printed editions . EXTERNAL LINKS
